    Does anyone know of low mount slip-on exhausts that definitely work with Corbin Beetle Bags?

    The clearance between the right Beetle Bag and the stock exhaust is so close and exact that I am worried an aftermarket one might have a slightly different angle or positioning that would cause problems. I'm hoping someone else already has some experience I could learn from before shelling out to try something.

    Thanks!

    I had a Staintune High Mount. I sold it here and bought a Staintune Low Mount. Look at my pic, and you can see it with Givi E360's.

    I don't know what the current USD=AUD exchange rate it, but I didn't pay that much more than what was available in the US, and I got the quality of a Staintune

    Cool, thanks. A Staintune low-mount is top of my wishlist. I'm just a bit worried about the mounting because the Beetle Bags fit around the stock pipe with only about 1/4" of clearance:

    If the Staintune mounts even 1/4" differently than the stocker, I'd have clearance issues.

    thtanner, I don't have a high-mount to trade but PM me if you'd consider selling. I'm in Santa Cruz so shipping might not be horrible.

    The diameter of the staintune is much smaller than stock
