Just recently bought a V11 Scura and although I have only ridden it a few miles it looks as if I will really get to like it. I have however just fitted new tyres and come across something which to me seems odd. I have a carbon lafraconi exhaust but when you look from behind the left exhaust is quite a bit closer in to the bike than the right. It uses hangers from the foot rests and again the left hand hanger is very different to the right and the pillion footrest hanger on the left is quite straight whereas the one on the right has quite a kick out which is where the difference in the exhaust position is coming from.
Is this normal? I’ve looked at the hanger and it doesn’t look like it has been bent, being alloy I guess it would snap rather than bend. Just seems odd that the exhaust is not symmetrical..

Absolutely normal and it used to annoy the life out of me when I had my V11 Le Man's.
Relax, nothing you can do about it. 😁

If it's the same frame as the centauro the engine and gearbox unit are offset 13mm to the right.
It looks odd when you are examining it but you can't tell when riding it.
