That's a lot of cantilever from the mounting bracket to the end of the muffler.

I wish the guy on the video would've gotten a view of the front with the two header pipes coming out to one. I wonder if he was told not to or something?

Get lost with your logical thinking. Honda is stupid for having duals. Don't even get me started on sound.

And I thought there was a lot of exhaust beyond the bracket on my ktm, that is just asking to get bent. I took the fmf off of my bike and cut it down to avoid bending it in the event of a crash.

What in the actual hell is going on with that mount?!?! I can see 1, 2, 3 easy options for a much shorter, more traditional mount. Hell, almost any other way of mounting it has to be less complicated than what they did.

I seen one being tested a few months ago at Log Road in Michigan. It looked factory but had a hodge podge number plate. Guy said he was testing it.

I wish sound wasn't an issue where I lived. It's the perfect excuse for every track getting closed.

I'm guessing this is retro mounting a longer single in the place of a shorter twin

Welding looks terrible though

You are missing what I am saying. 

Those pockets in that nifty cnc'd oem piece at the end of the subframe....those would be a great place to offer a small cnc'd plug to fit hole #1, #2, or #3 (supplied by FMF).  Then you can run a much shorter, bracket straight down.
