    i havetn heard about them sitting that hi before. Is there a chance you dont have the head pipe lined up right? dumb question but has to be asked! Have you tried clocking it counterclockwise to pull it away from the tank? or will the silencer and mounts even line up if you do that?

    None of my pipes are that close, double check the mounting of everything. Maybe the pipes a bit tweaked? There should be an inch or more of space between them. How about a few pics so we can better assess

    The CT pipe sits close to the tank, you should have at least 1" or more Clearance.

    Post up some close up pictures.
