 I was told they make excellent exhausts, but this project has occurred in a strange way. Early on, I couldn't get through the web site and decided I'd wait to see how it ended up.

 My guess is that a product engineer was given a green light to make them but not a budget.

I saw the post on CB750 four. I decided to send a text to Busso inquiring about delivery since it’s the last day of March and I received the text back that had been sent out about the quality issue and that delivery would be delayed until the end of March. So I don’t know anymore than I originally did. This is getting frustrating.

Ok, just received an email from Busso that stated they were checking the quality and if there were no issues, they would send the waybill next week.

Posted by Busso on one of the FB groups:

"Dear gentlemen, due to our delay, we inform you that we have taken the decision to give away the complete kit to all those who are just waiting for the silencers. (they will also receive carters, rubber bands and bandages).
We are sorry for the delay and we are working hard to speed up deliveries. We only care about the construction of the product the chromation and cleaning is handled by external suppliers, not being an easy product to work with we are looking for suppliers who were able to manage it, we received products with poor chrome quality and it was not possible to ship it. we are working for you to solve the problem. greetings to the staff"

I haven't received one. Thinking about writing... Dunno if others are waiting on 350F pipes or another model.

 I saw on facebook everyone waiting is getting free clamps, rubber bands, crankcases, bongos, etc. They showed pics of shields and balance tube connectors.

Do they sell or supply the correct length mounting bolts at the rear also ? Need them unless you have a bad set of stock pipes already mounted or taken off.

The bolts are available in aftermarket and OEM. The Honda ones are close to $30 each! Aftermarket ones are half that.

I ordered a set of HM300 pipes on December 10th. I received shipping notification today. Not sure if I'll get the free heat shields and connectors since I ordered so late. We'll see. Either way, I can't complain about a new set of pipes for $1000 shipped, assuming the quality is good.

My tracking number still doesn’t work. I emailed Busso and they replied that it would be at least 15 to 20 days before they were picked up by the shipper. It’s only been 10 days since I got the tracking number, so I’m just waiting.
