Thanks Andy.

I accept what your saying about the mounting points.

I did have a go at fitting the pipes in the centre hole when I put them on, but thought I'd try the proper place first.

My pannier brackets don't fit spot on, having to put one bolt in and then apply pressure to get one of the other holes to line up.
I want to address this anyway, so will have a play around at the weekend with them (big hammer no doubt ).
If the bolts aren't long enough I'll have to wait until I can get some longer ones. I doubt they'll be too long.

As for the alignment, I had to slide the mounts around anyway just to swap from the original mounting to the new pannier frame location, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem either.

All great advice though mate.
I will report back my findings

Cheers,
John.

p.s. Wife didn't look too happy when we got home last night. On asking what was wrong she said "That bike is just too damn loud, and it makes my head vibrate when you stop at junctions..."
Just wait until its run in and I can use all of its revs
