as I've had to on GPs too, around the bracket area, and a little off the back, but not as much as most other pipes.
I'd have thought any over the kickstart expansion will need some trimming off the vertical part at the very back of the runner.... hence the clubman and snail suggestions...

That mikeck you've got Jarv - would that hit anywhere if you had runners ?
Mine didn't hit anywhere on my GP. I don't get why a pipe built in the '80s when cutdowns and chops were all the rage can be built to not touch any bodywork when it seems that 30 years later you have to hack chunks out of panels with almost any new expansion you fit !

it was close

in fact, you can see a slight dent where it has hit.
but i do tend to mount them on the high side, as kickstarts banging on pipes is one of those things that really annoys me

I know what you mean, you can't beat an 80s pipe. Recently i had an old DJ on for a bit, real body hugging pipe, rather than a huge can sticking out the back.
Now I think of it, I don't know whether a mate had any cut form his runners with his 80s over-the-kickstart fresco on....
