Afternoon
Had my new exhausts fitted for a few hundred miles and when cleaning have noticed that there is a bit of weld missing which is allowing a small leak where the header meets the silencer.
I realise that this is a small thing - should I be worried as to the longevity of the exhaust etc ?
I've raised a support ticket
Thanks

I'd only be worried if they didn't replace it with such little service!

TBH - that is my thoughts as well

The photo isn't showing up very clearly but it looks like the quality of that welding is poor to say the least.
Let's hope that CMSNL agree to send a replacement.

Yes there is a complete but missed

Are these pipes the same as sold by DSS. At some stage I would like to get a set for my cb550k3.

Nothing like the quality of the welding on the 500 pipes, those are as close to perfect as you can get.
I gather you didn't replace them all as the lower pipe looks to have some gravel rash or is it a reflection of the floor?
That’s a reflection .... they have all been replaced

I would suspect so ... I went with cmnsl as the exchange at the time made them cheaper - I may rue that decision :(
-
I suspect they come from exactly the same supplier and so who sells them is irrelevant!
-
DS & CMSNL work together and sell to each other

I was very pleased with my CMS units and I think they use same supplier as DS anyway.
When I had a potential problem with one pipe after 2 years they replaced it no question and even paid carriage both ways
Great service

That sounds great - lets hope I'm as lucky :)

I once had an item that needed return to CMSNL (incorrect to part number) and it was replaced without problem.

Update
Just heard from a rather nice chap at CMSNL who says they will dispatch a replacement :)
Fingers crossed

Result! Always a good measure of a business, the speed and way they react to problems...
