I hads the same clearance issues with the mac fishtails/centerstand
ears.ended up heating up the ears with the blue wrench and bending them
down to gain a little more room for the center stand to retract.I was
dragging the centerstand while cornering.Mr. Mac mufflers needs to
revise specs. for the pipes by moving the attachment ear on the pipes
1-1/2 further forward.This would solve all clearance issues.I was pretty
upset when i bolted them up and found these kind of obvious design
defects in these pipes.I also tried a Mickey mouse hanger to move them
rearward,but it looked like sh*t so i took it right off.I have rear
crash bars&wixom bags so my options were limited.Good Luck.when i posted
my clearance issues on the list nobody responded.
