Can any one lead my in the direction of replacement hoses. Has any one tried 851 hoses or even an 851 radiator.

Samco Sport make silicone hoses in all shapes and sizes. there is also an 'Xtraflex' hose that has a wire core that when bent does not kink. [I have some on order for my car, the Profuel hose]

When I get to radiator hoses on my 907 restoration I am going to attempt replacing the rubber with silicone. I will need to fabricate some alloy pieces, eg a double T piece.

They do make a kit for the 851, but many hoses seem different. However there would be some easy substitutes, you also make lenghts up with alloy, or even carbon joiners.

Lots of pretty colours too

Trying to replace all coolant hoses for 1991 907IE - does anyone know current source I can find them? Many thanks!

Pity they are invisible on the 907s

We have this company in the UK, they are not that far from me and seem happy to help, as my bike is in bits at the momment I will try in the next month or so if work takes me their way to pop in and get a match on all the hoses and an idea of price and the relevant part numbers either way though it looks as if silicone is going to be expensive?

This is a link to the store I imagine their must be similiar such shops in various countries around the world????

I have looked at the silicone hoses from that manufacture.To me it looks like the closest match they have is for an early 851(part number duc-7). It has the odd upper hose with the four outlets and looks like it will work with an extra union and 90 deg elbow. This dose not replace the hose to the top of the rad and overflow tank but a couple more 90 deg elbows and a CBR filler neck can replace that.

I tried an 851 x-hose, I came across, in my 907 and it didn't fit. I also tried ST2 hoses with no luck. I'm back to the drawing board. Anyone have an idea for replacement?
