Braced swingarm - high rise silencers
Anyone that has made and fitted a braced swingarm, do you have high rise mounted silencers or is it a given to fit one, you need to use low mount silencers?
The current Firestorm/Superhawk I'm building has a CBR900RR bracing swingarm and I also have a set of Sebring high rise silencers that I got for a great price.
But now I'm assembling it, I've found the swingarm will rub/foul the silencers when the rear shock compresses.
The cans are quite long but looking at it and having had a set of high rise staintunes on another Storm, I'm thinking this is probably an issue with most high mounted silencers?
Any help/thoughts would be appreciated.

Hey Wolverine, thanks for the reply.
I've got a work around of just extending the pipes to the headers and then mounting them on the outside of the OEM rearsets, there just isn't enough length at the moment that the brace will clear the silencers when compressing.
I grabbed a couple of quick pics.
