Matt — thanks for filling us in on the development of your spigot-mounted headers. I had envisaged a header pipe with a larger ID to slip over the spigot but with the stock ID for the rest of its length, i.e. there would be a slight bulge where the pipe fits over the header for maybe several inches as it exits from the head. That would mean welding a larger section onto the header, and it might not look as neat. Clearly, you have looked at the various options and decided that the route you described is the best. Also, I thought my Commando was the only one where the 'kick' of the muffler was different left and right! You have clearly done your homework! I wish you success with the development of this product.

Here's a picture of what the clamp looks like up close. This is the SS system.
