center kickstand

hey all, new to sight and to KZs. Im currently working on a kz440 and have run into a snag. I have a 2 into 1 exhaust that seems to be in the way of the center stand. they come together under the engine right where the center stand wants to swing. has anyone else had this problem? the frame this motor originally came out of only had a side stand.

you will probably have to remove the center stand if you have your heart set on the pipe. most aftermarket exhaust systems won't allow you to keep the centerstand.
