Nice image, Ghostrider, and it does look a lot more attractive.

It appears this was an approach they considered:

More here. (These are claimed to be Kiska development sketches, but I can't confirm their authenticity).

The high pipes are certainly neater, and allow symmetrical panniers. So why that low-slung monstrosity they've ended up with?

Possibly multiple reasons, beginning with the muffler needing a lot more volume to handle gas-flow for 1200cc and 150hp. That implies more weight up high also, and packaging issues. And using a single CAT probably helps hold down costs.
