No one minded waiting here on the east coast because it was winter and now it's just about riding season and that's when it really starts to hurt can you shed any light on exactly what is holding up the process thank you

I guess I am not going to get a response on my post. if plating is there biggest problem they should invest in starting up and doing there own plating I'm sure there would be a big bucks to get it going but if they plan on sticking around this would solve there problems and would pay off in the end.

The title of this thread is perfect when describing Samson. They suck, plain and simple. Before their move to SD, it wasn't as bad, but even then, one still had to wait weeks/months to get a full set of pipes. Now it's gone from bad to worse and is inexcusable.

I'd like to have a set of fishtails on my 2006 Springer Classic. I won't even look at Samson's offerings, because of the complete lack of regard to the customer and their dishonest business practice. And I recommend the same to others. I work too hard for my money to have some company feel they don't need to work hard for their money.

And that excuse about the chrome plating company being elsewhere is sorry too. I've sent parts out to be chromed before, and never waited more than a couple weeks.

Can you tell me what dealer you ordered the 39"s from and I might be able to give you a proper ETA. You can PM me with your real name so the dealer can reference that for me.

Thank you,

Love my Sampson pipes! Little dissapointed with the loss of 6 horsies but made up for it with added torque. I will buy them again. Fishtails rock!

I think finding good plating companies is going to get tougher, lots are folding up shop.

I love Samson's Exhaust, had them on my last deluxe. But they got to pick up the production on their pipes. Waiting 2 months for a set of pipes will cause some folks to go another route. So, they are losing money.

I will ALWAYS have Samson's on my softails, if they continue to make them, but CMON guys, PICK IT UP!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!
