Anyone know where to get clear radiator hoses for my trikes? I need them for 86250R, 85/86 TriZ and 86 Tecate. Especially the tri z's with all of the impeller talk going on. Thanks

I would imagine any reputable autoparts place will carry that hose. (the stuff with the white mesh running through it? correct?) I've heard from a few guys not to run it though. it melts. I'm actually using a piece of it on my rear brake rezzy and havent had any problems.. but I dont think I'd use it for the radiators.

I and a couple boys on here run them hoses for our radiators. They have held up GREAT! Looks really nice too. I have em on my 250r

Not to sure how long it's been.. quite a few months already but I kinda heard the same about em, I guess it depends on how much you ride it? I got mine from lowes, but home depot outta have em too.
