View Full Version : sv650, dl650 braided oil cooler lines.
After taking my high mileage dl650 offroad at the weekend i managed to crack both oil cooler lines so it was losing lots of oil. With the price of oe. suzuki ones being ... ALOT... and needing them quick i made a set of stainless braided hoses up to replace them and stop the cracking problem in the future as they are flexible. I think you will probably agree that they look great!
They will also fit the sv650.

I can knock these out at £75 + £5 postage to the UK.
Postage to the US or europe etc will be higher.
Pm me if you would like a set as i dont get much of a chance to get on here and check the thread these days.

Posting your comments on the price of something the OP is selling is against for sale section rules, unless they are asked for.
If you don't like the price someone is asking then don't buy, simple.
Thank you dirty dog. No need though, if someone has a concern over the price I am happy to explain the pricing basis.
Regards

Hi mate I'm interested in a set as I've just found one of mine is cracked and the oil is smoking beautifully as it evaporates on the exhaust
How easy are they to fit? I'm not a complete numpty but don't have much experience. Are there any extra bits I'll need to get? Seals and the like? Also how does draining the oil work? I presume I need to do that too.
Hi there. No extra parts are required. Its really easy to fit them and if your careful you need not empty the oil. So long as your quick yourll only lose 50ml or so.
If your not to far i can fit them for free.

these are the guys you want.

You can message them for what your after and they will help you out.
The hose size i used for the sv was AN-6. The Nylon braided hose was good for me.
One of the two banjos that screw into the side of the engine, i think it was the rear most one, i had to put 2 copper rings on there to space out the hose fitting. It is a DIY kit but the whole lot in ally (less for the rad banjos, they were stainless) cost me £96 posted.
If you want any more info on the bits i got i'll be happy to help.
Jay.
