Scraping Exhaust While Cornering

Tigerjohn said:

The Serket system is sold as a model-specific exhaust but, in reality, the end cans are pretty standardised. Looks like Scorpion need to re-assess the design of this one - it clearly sticks out too far on the XSR. Make it a bit skinnier and sit it a bit higher and all should be fine. It's got a lovely deep sound but cornering concerns would put me off buying one at present.

Not sure really - I have the same exhaust and it's pretty low profile, all be it that it does stick out more than the stock one (can't say it's much lower though).

There's also some adjust-ability in this regard, as the silencer bracket has 2 fixing points (one to the silencer and one to the bike) allowing it to be pivoted up and down when fitted (there's enough leeway with the pipe connections to allow for this too).
Also, going a bit further, by bending said bracket slightly, the silencer can be moved inward a couple more cms (see image).

I would suggest that ilovebacon may have the exhaust set at the lower levels of its adjustment as well as riding a bit beyond the limits of the bike, if he's scraping pegs on the other side.
Could also be that with the stock exhaust there would be exhaust-ground contact issues in this case.
