Honda305 Gearset Mufflers

[Seadog]

Has anyone had any experience with CB77 mufflers the company Honda305 Gearset in the UK ( http://www.honda305gearset.co.uk/honda- ... 7-exhausts )? They appear to be a seamless version of the HM muffler using a modified baffle. No price is listed on the website, but I've sent them a message asking for a quote.

Anyone have any experience with these folks? I know some of you are using their 5 speed gear sets.

I have dealt with Gerry Cain and he is a sincere and dedicated individual. I have not purchased the mufflers but he told me of his intentions to make a similar but better part.

Thank you, G, good to hear. I did get an email back from Mr. Cain, but he said he'd get back to me soon. The website photos of his product look very good.

Am I missing the bottom area of the L/S muffler where HONDA built in a recessed area for the MAIN STAND to fit up into so it wouldn't drag in a hard left turn. ...............lm

Good catch, LM! I hadn't thought of that. On the page with the black SH, in the lower right photo there appears to be something like an indent in that area. I can't be sure though, even after blowing up the photo. It's something I'll have to ask about. I'll ask for closeup photos, if they're available.

As an update to this thread and to definitively answer LM's question, there is, indeed, a recess in the L/S muffler for the main stand. In our email correspondence, I found Mr. Cain a very nice fellow who is quite chatty and knowledgable. He is, however, reluctant to sell me his mufflers because I told him of my problems fitting those I bought from DS Spares and returned. He feels that, quality issues aside, the DSS mufflers had very generous mounting holes and might just have needed adjustment to fit. He felt that it was possible that my rear-most mounts might have been bent in the past. I don't necessary disagree.

At this point, I'm undecided about where I'll go with this next.
