Asymetrical exhaust?!! Am I a NUMPTY?

fitting brand new DP (Termi) exhaust to 900Sie and the right can / link pipe is too long - bolt hole in silencer bracket won't align with right footpeg carrier - if i shortened the link pipe (the short length of pipe that slides into the original manifold) about 10mm it would line up (left can went on OK). (the cans slip into the manifold like the standard cans - ie., no clamps like later monsters seem to use).

looking at the standard cans the right link pipe seems to be slightly shorter than left.

this all implies that the manifold where the cans slip in is asymetrical. has anyone else noticed this, is it me?

NB i've loosened everything, checked the obvious etc and it all appears cosher.
