CSMNL Exhaust for CB550 K3

(1/7) > >>

Gromitdog:
By chance would anyone have the fitting instructions for a set of exhausts from CSM for a CB550 K3 all I got this morning was a printed sheet from the CEO saying to follow the instructions on how to fit them I gone through all the boxes and No instructions in sight only the invoice, Very disappointing  considering I just spent over £1200 on them, I have emailed them and it may take 5-7 days to get a reply I am not holding my breath they actually have a set of instructions

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Do you mean the four pipe silencer system Nigel?

If you do page 52 &  53 of my build below covered this as I had no instructions.

Gromitdog:
Hi Ted

Yes I do I will have a look at those pages cheers, Hope all is well with you. I have to say I think cam take the "mick" charging what they do for these and can't be bothered to put a sheet of instructions in 😖

Cheers Nige

CSM NL have replied they don't do any instructions  for fitting these exhaust system for a CB550 K3 But are happy to charge over 1k for them 😖, They are not quite the same as Teds system  but it still involves 4 separate exhaust pipes,

The boxes which each exhaust pipes come in are marked up A, B, C, D, would I be right in thinking
A =L/H pipe N01, B + L/H pipe N0 2 and so on as CSM are of no help what so ever,  Can anyone tell if I am on the right track ? Or has anyone had any experience in fitting a 4 pipe exhaust system to a K3 that they have purchased from CSM

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
If you look at the photos on my 500 project you should be able to identify number 1 & 2 pipes easily. I think A & B were 1 &:2

Once you loosely fit pipe 2 first, the bracket fits on the inside of the foot rest mount. The bracket for number 1n pipe fits on the outside of the footrest frame fitting.

My 4 brackets were marked as per my rebuild posts.
I would be surprised if the 500 is much different.
