Anyone used em? seen their kit? anecdotes?

I've just noticed they're not very far from here at all, and might get a
quote for a custom zorst for the bandit.

4 into 2 with either one hi level can each side, or an underseat type
affair, if there's enough room.

These are going to be unbelievably naff soon - I'd go the under engine
route. That's the next big thing.

Possibly. But they are nice and tidy for sure. Althought I'm fairly
certain there isn't enough room anyway.

With my lardy arse, the bandit needs as much ground clearence as it can
get! Unless I go with straight through pipes....

If it's that bad perhaps you should look at having the suspension set up
to suit.

Although I can't see it taking up much more room than the current header
pipe arrangement.

I make a fair bit of sense in this video clip; despite being American:

No, the next big thing is dustbin sized exhausts.

As per the new Gixxer? I think they're really ugly.

Hmmmm, perhaps. I like them though

But doesn't mean in order to maintain ground clearance [1] the engine
needs to be a bit higher and won't that affect the centre of gravity?

I like that chap, he doesn't seem to talk bollocks and really believes in
his product.
