Does anyone know of a source for clear or semi-transparent coolant hoses that can be used instead of the black, drab rubber ones? I checked out the ones at the hardware stores, and there's some good choices looks-wise, but they are only rated to 120 degrees, a clear one using an internal spring being the highest at 150 degrees. I'd feel better with the standard 200+ rating.

 

Saw a radiatior clear hose kit for banshee on Ebay on Thursday.
Type in Yamaha Banshee in search box.
Good luck

 

Check out www.albaaction.com. I know they offer clear hoses for the ds650 but I'm not sure about other atvs.

 

I went to the alba site and saw the hoses, they look great! Now I have to call them to see if they'll sell them in uncut lengths for my 250R. Thanks guys! Any other sources?

 

if u want the cheap way, do like i did. i went to home depot and got some clear hose, then went to tha gracery store and got some clothing dye, any color u want, then u get a big pot, boil some water in it, put the dye in, stir it up, then dip ur hoses in there (already cut) and hold them in for a lil bit, the longer u leave them in the darker the color. then just let em sit for a lil while and clean them up and put them on. I have had some on my banshee and know of other people doing it also, and mine aint melted or nuttin.
