Grewth:
How difficult were the Busso pipes to fit ?
Obviously,  people's perception of difficult will vary according to their mechanical abilities.
I'm pretty good at coercing uncooperative lumps of metal into doing what I want, but I can't work miracles.

JamesH:
I was part of the initial group buy - had to trim the header portion of the exhausts down by several mm on every pipe in order to get the rear footrest mounting bolts to line up. They were an utter pig to fit. I called Busso out very early in the process to get them to update the welding jigs, but they just ignored any feedback and ploughed on with production. Didn’t realise they are still in business and supplying DSS.

Many thanks for that.
I've noticed on mine that the ends of the header pipes don't seem square to the tube.
As I overlooked buying any 8mm countersunk screws before the holiday, the delights of fitting are going to have to wait until January now.
