Appreciate the update, now we all know what's up down under! Makes sense that nobody got back to me.

Aloha,
Huladog

No tracking number, etc.

So I've been replying to their email to get an update, as of 1/13/16 not a word.

Any of you guys in Australia know what's up with Staintune? If they don't reply I'm going to have to cancel my order, get a refund via PayPal and probably order a Moriwaki from our friends in Japan.

Aloha,

In response to a PM from Huladog I contacted Staintune this morning. Actually "contacted" is a little misleading in that I listened to an answering machine message. To put you in the picture; Staintune is not a "big end of town" business and is based in the New South Wales country town of [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mittagong]Mittagong (Mitta). Over Christmas they shut down for four weeks and go fishing, riding, kangaroo shooting, or whatever takes their fancy and turn their backs on the mad world of 24/7 instant communication that we take for granted. Very country Australia. Makes me kinda wistful. Really.

Understandably, that is of absolutely no comfort to Huladog who has put down his hard earned Dineros for a slip-on which has not yet appeared on the horizon. However, on the positive side, [url=http://staintune.com.au]Staintune will open for business again on the 20th January. I have made a diary entry for that date and will chase up Huladog's order at opening time on that day.

I have a Staintune fitted to my bike and, without prejudice to any other brand, would thoroughly recommend the product. Good quality, nice sound, and the size makes it easy to work around for wheel removal, chain adjustment and brake work. Worth the wait in my opinion.

From the Staintune website:

G'day all,

I have contacted Staintune and I am pleased to say that they have returned from their Christmas break refreshed, reinvigorated and ready to send Huladog his muffler. It sits in dispatch at this very moment. When payment from PayPal is cleared, Hula will receive shipping and tracking details.

Cheers

Your welcome. I laugh my arse off when I see "fragile" on that box. That freaking pipe is so well built it would survive a nuclear blast.

enjoy the pipe Jason I sure did. Makes your CB sound like an inline four should.

And here I thought it was from France..... Lol...

The pipe looks awesome... I haven't put that many miles on my CB since buying it from speedgeezer a year ago (got two small boys). The miles I have done have been fun, but yeah it doesn't sound right, too quiet.

I was actually looking at this post, really liking the st almost looks stock, and loving the sound, when I saw you post it up in the for sale section... I didn't think twice

Now I'm po'd that snowmageddon is happening in my area and it's freezing, and I'm sick, or I'd be in the garage and installing it now..

^^^ And now's a great time to buy, modmaster. The AUD (South Pacific Peso) is worth less than 70 US cents, so do us a favour and help out the economy.


Note: I'm too mean to buy a Staintune and I have no interest in the company.

For the immediate future I will have to wait until I can accumulate a few more of those South Pacific Pesos. Heck, I don't even have physical possession of my 2013 CB until March. The dealer is keeping it in storage until then for free. As soon as it starts getting back into the high 40s around here in WI I will have them deliver it. Until then I will keep watching this forum for a used Staintune.
