Y Piece and chip upgrade?

With my bike now in more pieces than I planned the list of jobs I'm tempted to do is growing by the day.
I've read a post about the Chinese Y-Pieces onEbay and wondered if they or other exhaust mods are worth doing, along with a chip upgrade?
I wouldn't mind more power, but I'd love more noise!

I've got one of those somewhere. Does it fit underneath without the need for any bits to be removed?

Best Hydraulic Lift/Paddock Stand??

Can people recommend a good Hydraulic Lift and a Paddock Stand that will work with the Lift and my R1100S please?
I can feel a few minor tweaks coming on before the nicer weather arrives.

Yes the rear wheel is very wide, couldn't imagine it being wider. What's is in the Sports Pack? ABS?

That's my bike :wink:
I won't be doing any off road stuff on it, so I might get the abs fixed. Can someone tell from the picture what model this one is?

Thanks for all the information guys most appreciated!

Suspension seems tricky too so will leave alone.
Belly pan, well a fibreglass part will do all I want, so that's a yes. I ...
