Hi W,

I don't really have any answers to your questions at this point in time as I 
am just about to install the engine in the frame and subsequently the pipe. 
I bought it used , the guy I bought it from cut the frame behind the 2 
rearmost mounts for the seat/sidepanels. He said it wasn't necessary but 
everyone usually does for weight etc. If I don't have to I won't cut the 
frame.

It came with one bracket which clamps to the frame and to the end of the 
"silencer".

I'll keep you posted as I progress

Dave
