Hmmmm, vertical angle looks fine to me, but horizontal looks a bit out. I'm not talking from a an operational/is it safe standpoint, merely aesthetically. Looks like it needs to be more inline with the bike rather than sticking out so much. Particularly visible on the 1st photo.

Got an oval Evo myself, will try to take a piccy in the morning and post it up for comparison.

EDIT: also that number plate is bloody huge! Reminds me that my stock one needs replacing and my old tail-tidy refitting asap.
EDIT 2: oh, and why can I see a baffle still in there?

Needs to tuck in a bit more. Bike is too pointy.

I had the same problem with my pipe . Found out they sent the link pipe from the mk1.

I think the band should be in the middle of the can and then connected to the hanger. Otherwise it's going to be either too close to rear wheel and swingarm or too far away as it is now.

I got an NWS black can hanger that solved the problem for me as it pulls the can in a lot more and is now running true with the swing arm

Blueflame seem to have something of a reputation for their link pipes. It does look too far out at the moment
