Is that an 'empty' CMSL box in the background or is it another set of pipes????????

The bike looks great anyway.

Don't know who the manufacturer is, but they appear to have the seam welds sorted. Wonder if any better CB350F pipes will appear? Lovely looking bike, and having the correct pipes makes all the difference.

They will l be shelling em out like peas now James  ;D. Still think I will wait for DS to get them, as I know a man with a trade account plus a lot easier to swap if you are not happy with 'em. Sound's like I got into CB500 ownership just at the right time ! They look really nice on your bike.

Pipes changed for K3 - so the 'tulip' end style of the pipes on earlier bikes are not correct for yours...the parts listed by DSS are correct...

Check first pic here...

And rather than "HM323" they are "HM404"

I have a set  of 374 'tulip shape'  repros reserved paid for from David Silver but he's holding delivery as I have other parts to order and I only want to pay one set of postage. If they look OK I might take them the CB500 guru in York to let him appraise them. Evidently he told that DS had a go at reproving these a few years back and this guy had two sets but returned them as he said that on the 1st set the chroming was crap and on the second set they didn't fit properly. I have high hopes for the latest incarnation though as they are from the same source as CMS but hopefully with tighter QC and evidently the CMS ones are decent with double-skinned header pipes.

Don't get your hopes up these were bought from d s but are in cms boxes I'm waiting for third set but am told they have the same dent as previous sets but I think I'm going to have to accept them as not available anywhere else
