My preference for a hi-level system is partly because it makes the rear wheel more accessible for, eg brake, chain, tyre maintenance.
Apart from liking the looks, the other reason that I think I favour a longer pipe is because when I originally fitted the hi-level termi system, I thought it felt like it had improved low down engine response .. which I think also ties in with accepted theory.

Also, now that it is semi-fitted, I must admit that some of the scrapes look kinda cool.
They don't really matter functionally, as the pipe is stainless and corrosion isn't an issue.
I might not bother cutting out all the damaged sections .. just the badly dinged bit underneath .. and simply polish around the scrapes.
Patina, ain't it ?
