    I'm looking at tor exhausts for a 2011 america and most of what is available seems to be for the pre 2011 model. As far as I can tell the difference seems to be the stand position and hence the stop. If I make or modify the stand stop can I fit pre 2011 pipes to a 2011 bike? Has anyone already done this?
    Cheers.

    Right then pipes fitted perfectly except for i had to fabricate a stop for the side stand, not a big problem. So short tors brand new in the box for £175, the 2011 onward ones are £385 I think, the only difference is the side stand stop. £210 to make a side stand stop well worth half an hours fiddling:D

    Short TOR's give great access to the rear axle spindle, so chain adjustment is a breeze and they sound fantastic (and there is less zorst to clean and polish!)

    I just made a type of "p" clip on the frame with a rubber stop on it for the stand to stop on. Basic and simple but seems to work and can't be seen from above.
