Tough to forgive wrongs done to you, seems it drives the desire for revenge even higher. Your peace is worth more than the desire to get even. The guys at Busso will get theirs one day. Seeing evil flourish only makes us feel the hurt more...

But Busso getting theirs is no consolation to losing 850 euros per set ordered and paid for.

Could be your buddy you got them from coated them with Eastwood's coating and put them back away..

That may well be what happened. I’ll take a snapshot tomorrow and ask him, but I don’t think he even opened the carton. I had to pop the staples.

I was beginning to wonder if I imagined this? These “no number” Yamiya pipes are definitely coated internally, end to end. Lucky me. See photo.

I think you will find that is not a ceramic coating and that it is only a superficial paint coating that covers the end perforated tube. My Yamiya no number also have this but if you poke a bore scope down you will probably no further coating inside the silencer bodies but traces of rust from the plating process, as I found in mine, see attached. I did raise my concerns about the level of internal rust with D Silver but he just said that was normal!!!!!!!!!

That's to the point where I'd probably plug the end and fill them with Evaporust for a couple days, rinse them out with diesel fuel and at least coat with 2 stroke oil to preserve them, or ceramic coat them with Eastwood's kit.

I will have a look. The coating was at the other end too. Maybe the fellow I bought them from did this?

  I saw on facebook that some Busso pipes that were owed are being shipped. I hope mine are two of them. I heard that was in the plan but that was a week and a half ago.

When I got my 341's 16 months ago I received a bill for duty charges prior to delivery so if and when we get that I'm not convinced the pipes are coming.

 These were the same ones previously held at Customs, the old tracking numbers are on the boxes. I had stopped tracking them when these numbers quit working. I'm looking forward to hearing that everyone who paid for a set is getting their packages now.

When do you think you’ll have a crack at fitting them Don? Be good to see if they’ve sorted the #3 pipe interfering with the lower frame tube. Keeping my fingers crossed for ya

I agree, I would think that once they were shipped, they were the property of the person receiving them. If given the opportunity to pay the duty/shipping difference or whatever  to anyone official I probably would have. The boxes show some wear, many staples were pulled and one box is coated with dust but I've seen that when the ups truck runs on gravel roads.

Highly doubt Customs would go through the trouble to try to contact the recipient, it didnt pass for whatever reason, so it was sent back.
