I've managed to get the headers sorted, in the end it was easiest to chop a section off and graft in new so I could get the angles the way I wanted, also had to extend #3 by 8mm in the height to get it to line up as I wanted just the intermediate pipe and the rear mount now
I wouldn't worry about the rest of the pipe; I'm sure it will sound great as-is.
Well done you!

Yeah, that's probably a better idea
The ancient 4-into-1 on my GPz550 has a baffle like that... I assume. It's been stuck for 30 years and I haven't been willing to cut the pipe to take it out.
