I recieved your pics...your Raptor looks great!
I have some questions about the hoses.
They seem to be "bolted"..how did you adapt a tread?
On the pics, it doesn't look like there are any 90 angles...are all the hoses actually almost straight? Or did you have to deal with hard turns? If so, how did you do it?
It looks real cool. I might do this on my shee...just curious about the nut/tread thing.

They sure did fool you huh. The parts on the end of the hose's that look threaded clamps are in fact just a clamp that slips over the hose and is held in place by the hose clamp. But they look really cool, also I used 3/4 hose which was the closest I could to the factory hoses. I put a little oil on the inside of the hose and then just (with a little force) slipped them on. As far as the bend's there aren't really any 90 bend's on my bike the hose is pretty flexable and doesn't crush too easy. The on little hose that goes from the waterpump to the block it was only about 4in long I had to strip the hose covering off the new hose and put it on the old hose, what a pain. I know they make just a hose sleeve kit if you have 90 bend's that would be your best bet. Let me know if I can help you out in other way.
