Mounting the exhaust low vs. mid vs. high

Is the stock setup considered low?

If so, is this considered mid?

No they're are both high mounts but company's have different heights for the hangers. You don't want to go much higher if you want to keep the oem signals,(that's why they have the space in between), but you can go all the way to the plastics if you don't. These are both the same system I just made them fit differently.

That Blue bike is beautiful.. I love the mirrors.

I would just X the stockers and go with mini's. Then you can go as high or low as you want.

If you want to actually be seen, consider Hyperlites. I got a pair a couple weeks ago and they are awesome. They are more function over form. They're not "ugly", but they're not like those cats eyes either. They are however very bright and can function as extra brake lights depending on what you get. I have pics I posted last week. I'll post the link if I can find it.

can get em easily on Ebay
just one seller with em

but as was stated, they arent as bright as OEM, and are a little hard to see in the daylight. they do fine at night time.

but honestly, if i had to do it all over again i would spend the $90 and get the LED brake light with integrated signals. that's the best option IMO

just a hacked and shaved OEM
