    Don't know if this helps, but I had the same pipes fitted to my T100.
    I chose to remove the centre stand as I had the same problem - not too bothered as I have a paddock stand and it saves about 2.5kg of weight.
    As Dave says your pipes are set very low - see attached pics of mine - they weren't splayed out too much to affect the look of the bike.

    Hi Steve i wish mine had fitted like yours. The bracket from exhaust to foot peg was it modified in any way? Because the unmodified bracket was too close to the rear shocker. Also the SAI system looks removed in yours which would reduce the popping & banging without a remap. Did you put extra padding around the baffle to help quieten it? I,m asking all this because i have had no reply from the company about returning them. Thanx in advance.

    No, that was the standard bracket - yes, the secondary AI was removed - no remap with carbs! The bike was fitted with Scrambler rear shocks which are 20mm longer - not sure that would make any difference to the fitting of the exhaust though. Yes, I did wrap the baffles with extra padding to quiet them down. In fact, when I looked the padding supplied with the pipes was a tiny layer which had scrunched up at one end of the baffle making it useless in effect.

    Thanx for info. The std bracket in the position on your picture fouled the rear shocker on mine. I presume with both the SAI removed & extra padding their was No popping & banging on throttle. Still no word from Supplier so might be stuck with them, or resell on Ebay?

    Removing the AI system will stop the popping on deceleration if you want to get rid of that.
