Are those the same D220's that we get fitted as 'stock' tyres over here when we buy our bikes? If so, I/we don't rate them really

Look for the D220 thread in 'Tyres'

Is that the stock exhaust system? Looks kind of odd- doesn't the stock system go down the front of the oil filter rather than down the side?

I see you've found your way over here as well mate. There is a bit of info on svdownunder about tyres, obviously things are a bit different for tyre types and conditions in Oz. The main reason that the tyre would be worn on the right side is the camber of the road.

Have a shop around for pipes, the best mod for sure, and there are some good ones for sure. I'm wrapped with my Remus can and you can get that in high or standard mount. The Staintunes are also a good option to have a look at.

Ah, yes, camber that makes a lot of sense. The tire currently on there is the OEM Metzeler (SP) one.

As for pipes, I'm sure I can convince the missus that it would be a good safety investment so cagers can hear me

I currently have the stock pipe on there, it even has the noice level confliance sticker on it.
