It all depends on the manufacture and how the make their mid-pipe....

Devil and Leo Vince are VERY high mount like your photos... about he highest you'll find.
Others like TBR and Jardine aren't that high... more like mid-mount when compared to Devil's and Leos...

The first three are leo vincis and the last devils. Nothing special-they come that high. Migs are also that high. The 2nd pic of the carbon leo's is an old pic of my bike. As you can see if you look underneath at the left hanger I also trimmed the stock black undertail and slightly bent the hangers in past the fairing to pull the cans in closer too. Jardine and two brothers (there are others) also make high mount slips ons but they aren't "ultra" high mount like these are.

It's all in the hangers, I made my Jardines that high when I had the highmounts by flipping them over and using them on the oppisite side.

With my Microns, the mid-pipe doesn't have that "S" shape to it. So the only way I can get the cans higher is to get a different mid-pipe or weld a new section in. The hanger itself won't change what I need. (Ummmm, want)

The Jardine high mount tuck up close to the tail section also. Not as close as the Devil and Leo's.

That gun rack rocks. Who makes the mid pipe and hanger for the very high mount? I wanted buy Jardine because they offer the best price and performace, but I love the very high mount look that Devils offer. Who make the hangers and mid pipe I need for that very high mount look?

I guess one thing to look into would be to check the I.D. of the Jardines with the O.D. of the midpipes you'd like to use. If they match up then make sure the diameter of the can will work with not hitting the plastic or anything. You can always get a hanger fabbed up from someone or make one yourself.

This was with Jardine mid pipes and I took the Jardine hangers switched sides and mounted the cans over the hanger but you could easily make your own hangers.
