Would these be ok without the fins or a waste of time

My choice is the chromed brass items.

Don't mention original factory drawings for god's sake.Fast Eddie
You,re lucky they fitted, I bought a pair in May last year (06-3555S) and they didn,t fit my old RH4 or new Fullauto head, went in half a thread handtight and jammed solid.
A quick check with a vernier showed them to be 0.013" oversize compared to the old original chromed AN roses from the RH4.
These fitted the Fullauto perfectly and are a genuine fit and forget item on my bike, final tightening with the engine hot and never had any problems seizing or loosening on either head.
I certainly wouldn,t trust the RGM alternatives to give the same service over time given the cycles of cold, heat, moisture and possible corrosion between the head alloy and stainless roses, which expand much more than the steel originals and may present long term problems even with anti seize compound.
Sent them back for a full refund and got an email of the "I personally redrew and checked these from the original factory drawings and the appropriate British Standards (1945) so they must be correct" type from Roger Myers.
I replied along the lines of "you may well have done but they don,t fit so can I have a full refund please"
Eventually got a refund, minus the original postage despite this being a legal obligation in the UK, and emails were ignored, but from being a long time customer who has had good service regarding returns in the past, will no longer deal with them.
Obviously having been caught short, Roger got in a terminal sulk, but the fact is, I will not face the prospect of seized stainless steel exhaust roses in such an expensive, but beautifully engineered head when the standard AN roses are superior although admittedly, not as weather proof.
Caveat emptor!
Hi Neill,cliffa
that,s what he actually wrote but didn,t follow them very well that,s all...
