907IE Radiator Hoses

[Projectman]

I emailed the address given, belatedly (yesterday), re - the cost of these hoses. (I've been busy being sixty )

Any clue as to what is happening anyone?

Its moving albeit slowly !

Basically we have 10 confirmed and we need 10 more - I've posted in just about all the Ducati forums I can and am trying to get something into some of the mags (Classic Bike etc. through the letters pages).

There are a 5 or 6 more "possibles" but I kind of only rate them as a half a person as they may or may not commit when the time comes.

I'm also trying to tap up some of the "Ducati specialists" to convince them that having a set or two in stock would be a good move for them - no luck with that so far.

Unfortunately I have a finite amount of time to devote to this and that time is being spent trying to find more people who may not necessarily be on this board, as a result comms are a little light on the board for me at the moment.
I did spend quite a bit of time scratching around trying to find a better lhs hose than mine for SFS to work with as mine has a crimp in it where its sat next to the frame brace.

Comms will improve as we get a few more people interested.

Andy.
I fully appreciate all the time and effort you are putting onto this.
I have emailed you to confirm that I definitely want a set of hoses.
Good luck with getting the orders up to the minimum requirement.

Come on you waverers commit! You know it makes sense.
This is a one-of opportunity to acquire a set of quality hoses for our 907's.

Perhaps you could mentioned this purchase item to other Pasoist on Facebook, as there are a few of them there too and the idea is more easily to be spread.

Hi Fella's.

I would be interested in a set of hoses for a 907ie. I'm out of Georgia USA.

Please keep us updated.

Cheers,

Tony

PS. This is my first post.

I remembered LT at Desmo Times was looking to make a run of silicon hoses for the 907. I e-mailed to ask if he was still interested, he replied not enough interest he needed 10 to place an order. It looks like we have 10 people interested now. This looks like a better way to go.

I was on LT's list then he got called to active duty

Guys

I'm really not precious about this in the slightest. If you have another supplier that will work with a lower minimum then hell lets go for it.
It could take some time to generate more interest in this over and above who's "spectating" at the moment !

I have absolutely no vested interest in this apart from the fact I know at some point I will need new hoses for my bike - I have no plans to sell it ever so its worth doing.
I've got a reasonable set of pattern hoses now to copy from too so that helps and I'm happy to loan those where ever needed.

As they are probbably porous as well we can get round the duty issues of moving them globally too.

Put me down for a set.
I may have sent a direct e-mail but can't remember.

Hi guys

Sorry been a bit slow to update.

Basically we're still short so I'm talking to some other manufacturers to see if they'll do a smaller run

I'm also talking to a couple of dealers to see if they'll go in for a couple of sets for stock.

Most of the dealers didn't really want to talk until after christmas so that's this months challenge.

[a330us]

you can put me down for a set please and depending on price maybe two! Lots of 907's. Thanks Arch.

[Bock900r]

I would take 2 set
