custom rad hoses?
anyone know how to make custom rad (and other shaped) hoses? I'm not talking those flexible, spring loaded pieces of crap u find at the parts store, i'm talking custom molding OEM quality hoses. i figure there's gotta be some custom builders that do that shit all the time.

good idea, don't know why i didnt do taht before. just as well tho, cause i ahvent' really found much. appears there are a few companies offering universal hoses with metal (usually chrome) corrugated exteriors. not sure if they'rde work, but worth a look.

Samco do a range of silicone hoses specific to the bike model in different colors; green, blue ,red look great but a little pricey

Just curious, What would you need a custom hose for?
But like entropy says you could google it or try a local hot rod parts store they are
great for doing stuff or knowing someone that could.

its on there somewhere
they actually got some cool shit for zx-12s, like dual undertail exhausts and stuff
probably wouldnt be worth buying because the euro shits on the dollar, thus making european products disgustingly overpriced. thanks president bush.

hard to tell, but i dont think they reroute the rad hoses on their naked bike. they got those little upper shrouds to cover much of it.
