NOS CB500/550 exhaust pipes on ebay
« on: March 05, 2008, 08:11:47 PM »
Am I missing something?? You can buy a full set of new pipes from David Silver spares for somewhere around $600

http://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/

Theres a seller on ebay who say's they are special order for $895 and the order will be placed after you pay. Sure sounds like he's making $300 by placing the order for you with your money. Clever little scam artist.....

I wonder if Honda ran off a fresh batch or if some huge old stock was unearthed??

Im not sure about DSS but i priced them last week and with a nice discount from the parts manager it was $826 at my honda dealer with the rear connectors and crush washers. A 110$ discount from list and i can have them in 3-4 days.I cant wait to order them. So yes honda still has them. What would shipping from the UK to USA be? Hes probably a parts manager at a honda shop buying with his discount and pocketing 100$ a set.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

I always thought Honda would randomly crank out batches of old parts. I wonder how they determine what to make? I sure wish there was a way to be notified when they do? If they would support the vintage bikes with more parts it could be good business?

Don't forget Service Honda sells oem parts for around 30% off retail
