Re: coloured pipe work
If you got coloured radiator hoses for only 24 quid that was cheap.
 Think someone was selling sets on Ebay for 70 ish. |

Re: coloured pipe work
Is it a kit you've bought or pieced it together?

Re: coloured pipe work
The ebay kits also include the smaller hoses for between the V, but compared to other kits I've seen they do look a bit overpriced. Pics pls!

Re: coloured pipe work
not so much coloured, but overbraiding is a fairly cheap way to get something along the same lines
 Cheers Mark.

Re: coloured pipe work
The ones on Ebay for £70 are of a much higher standard than OEM ones, however they are costly and the OEM ones will cope with all maners of modifications to the SV (750cc etc).
They simply are not worth the money and are only for cosmetics |
