No complaints at all. Easy to put on, and they sound great.

Look really good! CB750 has a very special design with the 4-4.
Stamped 341.... look like real Honda.
My HM300 replicas have no stamps at all

Well I ended up buying these, interesting deal. The seller had bought them from his Honda dealer ages ago and then sold the bike before he put the pipes on. The pipes have been sitting in his house ever since, like twenty years , and the boxes have never been opened. Everything from the crush washers back to the baffles are new and genuine Honda. And the best part is the last photo!

Wow, bonus! ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Total bonus, I was expecting 341's at the price. All of the extras really add up when you start pricing them, so I lucked out big time. They are going to be perfect for the K0 I just bought.

David Silver spares has the aftermarket 341s again.   $1095 + shipping.  No EPA paragraph.  Fit is excellent.
Chrome looks great.   The only thing I can tell from the originals is the bend of the headers.  The original Honda pipes have a more graceful bend.  These have a straight section going down - not the continuous, beautiful curve that the originals had.   Took me a few days to notice...

Can we see a pick of the front? I would think no issues with oil change correct?

No issues with oil changes.  Just the bend of the header.  I'll snap a pic tonight with some original headers side by side.   Really not noticeable unless you know what you are looking for.   Still, very pleased with my purchase and will order another set for another bike I'm toiling on.

Yep, I can see that straight section mate, and it does look weird. What's that tail light? I'd like one for my Sportster? Cheers, Terry. ;D
