I very much doubt it, though at that price they should be made of stainless, i suspect they are knocked together in a very short period of time with the longest part being the plating up.

Who's going to volunteer to give them a go? I tried 4 times with the last batch from various suppliers and sent the lot back To be fair though, I spoke at length about it to Silvers and they returned their entire stock. Can't see them re-stocking with more dodgy parts.

I just received at set of pipes from CMSL and they look fine and dandy to me, presumably they have come from the same source as those offered by DS. I haven't tried to fit them as the bike is in a zillion bits for restoration over the winter. Pics to follow when it's done.
Cheers

Mine has a set on it from Silvers, though I don't know when they were put on, bike has only been in country since 2015 though, when they rust out a delkevic 4/1 will be put on.

Pretty sure all of DS's Honda 4 pipes are developed / manufactured in collaboration with CMSNL except HM300's that come from Yamiya. My 500/4 ones came in CMS stamped boxes with  DS stickers on.
