If you put the pannier mounts on yourself and fitted them in different places then you might have issues - but I can't see why you would put the mounts in these places anyway!

Cheers for that gas up. What does it sound like with that can? Is it overly loud? Do you think that the exposed pipe is a hazard in the event of a fall? JMO has put XR400 plastic side panels on hers which look good and should stop this from happening. I fall off a lot! Still recovering from a fall on a steep descent two weeks ago (nothing broken) but my mate had to lift the Ten off of me.

2) to the best of my knowledge there is no cat converter in aftermarket cans.
Cheers Cap'n, will the Ten pass an emmissions test without a cat? I'll call MTC and ask if they can do a cat which can be removed.
