there's this mounting tab.. and i'm wondering.. where am i supposed to mount this? i havent checked my stock exhaust to see if it has a similar tab but i dont remember it having one. is this tab one of the reasons the jardine is marketed only to the F models? is there somewhere on the F models that this tab is bolted to?
is this even the right midpipe? it doesnt bother me beyond the slight rattle i get sometimes when the centerstand comes up and taps against it

I don't have my jardine on yet but I believe that's the stop for the center stand. If you have the stock exhaust, check if there's a rubber bumper on there

That is where you need to put the rubber stop from the stock exhaust so that the centerstand will hit the rubber just like on the stock system.
