With pop rivets!
As far as I am aware, unless there is a dissimilar metal ( a rod that welds to either) you will have to make a mechanical join.

wait.

think someone had a thing on here about a similar problem a few weeks back. think the answer was no...
if the titanium end cap is riveted on, can it be removed, and something from here http://www.pjengineering.co.uk/products.asp?cat=10 riveted on
instead? then welded to the down pipe?

Unfortunately you cannot fusion weld Titanium to stainless steel.
You would need to weld a titanium link pipe to your R1 can
