Hi,I have a 1974 Xs50.The bike for for racetrack use only.Not for a flat track but for vintage racing and track days.I have the Mikesxs performance system with both headers ends going right below the clutch cover and the short megaphone muffler.The ground clearance is my major problem when I go fast and lean in a turn.I started to grind the mounting 6mm bolt on the bottom of the Y fitting.when that one was totaly gone then the flat part of the lower header started to scrape the racetrack pavement.I have the gas rear shock on the bike.I made the rear shock harder to help the suspension not to sag so much with my weight on the bike.That helped a bit.I belive that the last resort would be to buy a different header and have one muffler on each side of the bike.This way I should have more ground clearance.What do you think about it?.Suggestions?..Thanks
