Come on, do you really think that people are just going to be satisfied by a pipe that resmembles some sort of Frankenstein drainpipe???

Besides how would you know that they think more about how it looks when finished...you've not got anything made by them. Fair doos my linkpipe is a small thing made by them, but what difference does it make? Its the same as any other flippin linkpipe.

A bit of a generalised statement about a company you have no experience of
Mate of mine had a custom system on an early blade, the way they had flattened the tubing to make the collector was excellent for looks as it hugged the bottom of the motor perfectly. But it lost about 5bhp compared to stock!

It's totally different asking a linkpipe, as you can't really **** up the flow properties. A full system to make an underseat system without the pipe going around the side of the swingarm is a different matter though.

I don't think it's particuarly feasible to bring the linkpipe up through the arm as for a "true" underseat system.
