Following recent VJMC E Mail providing links to International E Bay sites I have found some Nos Upper and Lower Left genuine HM323 exhausts on the Italian site under Blutony747(100%) at Euro375 inc. delivery to UK.
Although this price equates to around a quarter of the cost of a complete new CB500K1 in 1975, in today's market they look good value vs CMS price of Euro600 who incidentally refuse to confirm that their stock is stamped HM323 (despite 4 separate 'ticket' requests !)
Just ordered Upper Left to replace one that had been repaired around the rear 'balance join' (was vgc apart from that) - bike is a 1975 UK K1 which was subject of the John Nutting 'Magic Carpet Ride' test in Sept. 2011 Classic M/C Mechanics. The other 3 pipes are fortunately virtually as new.
Still 7 Upper Lefts in stock if anyone interested.
