Ixil used to do a twin can system for the Gen 1, which was also hi-level, IIRC.  Haven't seen one in years, though. 

Apart from looks - which were a bit odd because the additional can's long link pipe curved up and over to the left side - it was heavy and did nothing for performance.

It can be done but the y link has to be manufactured as not one available and then the link and getting the left hand can to match yours it does run expensive as i have looked into it
you do lose center stand apart from losing the center stand a low level twin outlet might look nice ;) ;) nice shiny can either side lol not everything has to be performance related and as long as it isnt harming performance then its down to the rider.

IMHO  I think sometimes we get hung up on performance yes do all you can to improve it but also make the bike yours

'Did nothing for performance' was my nice way of saying it was bad for it in terms of poorer gas flow and several kilos more weight. ;)

Do what you like, It's your bike, not theirs!

I must confess to being a sucker for twin exhausts. I think they make the bike look presently balanced. :)
