    After much soul (and wallet) searching I have nearly decided to buy a Staintune system.  My problem is the manufacturer doesn't know if the mainstand can be retained as the bike in their website is a Boxer Cup replica which doesn't have one.  Is there anyone out there who has one fitted who can answer the question???

    Try a google search for 'boxertrix' a very active and useful UK forum specifically for 1100S's, someone on there will know. I would think you're only possible problem might be a lack of a bump stop. The staintune has one for the side stand, but not sure how the mainstand works, as I didn't have one on my S. Do have a vague recollection of cutting a spare bracket off my Staintune, which may have been a mainstand stop!

    Jonno,Have a look at this thread: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?s=4e8c39267da257cef82bce4610656618&threadid=344001    it mentions a main stand bump stop on a Staintune zorst, so looks like my fuddled memory is correct!

    Thanks for the feedback..  I finally got a definitive answer out of Staintune.  The sales manager in Oz got back to me saying that the german importer has confirmed there's no conflict between c/stand and the after market pipe.  He also said he couldn't believe that the question hadn't been posed before.  Go figure!!!

    Just for info. The new staintune exhaust fits well and has a stop fitted for the mainstand rubber to sit against (bank account looking sad).  Wooo Hooo!

    Be as cheeky as you want.  $2355 from Tony Rees in Tauranga.  I haven't had a chance to ride enough to form an opinion of it yet but it does sound NICE!!! but quiet enough so you can't hear it at 100k.  It fitted without any drama apart from me deciding to move the rear brake reservoir a bit further out.  It's now only accessible by removing the rear side cover but that's no biggie.  When my tekkernoggickle other half comes home from Khazakstan next month (no I'm not joking)  I'll post a photo or two.  Hmmmm Chip next????
