Aaahhhh bling overload!!!

What you reckon on this then?

Actually I was going to get a set of these Samco silicone coolant hoses and he's selling this as well. Too much for me but someone's 'Magpie Radar' will probably start going ping!

Anyone else got these hoses btw? Is 120 quid about right for the set or too much? I know they are expensive.

I suppose a price comparison with the stock hoses would be a good guide as to value for money.

Look cool in red though wouldn't they

On the Samco site,the RRP for a Ducati 888 hose kit is £110.00 doesnt say if thats plus VAT.Buying the original hoses probably cost more than that.

I've been looking at Samco hoses as well, but they're a long, long, long way down the priority list.

If you really want a race radiator have a word with Chris at Forza Italia. When I picked up my 888 from them they had a 748 in that had a damaged rad. They had got one of the race fabricators at Silverstone to knock up a top quality race spec one cheaper than an OEM one

looked at the pace radiator, it looks huge, I asked the question of whether or not an oil cooler would still fit underneath it & asked for dimensions - since my queries I've not heard a thing !! strange
Samco's seem to go for around 110 - 120 (including the VAT)

If their switched on, the would make the oil and water rads in a single assy.

It looks like this guy gets everything to order. 30 days delivery eyc. Why not go to your local Samco dealer or Pace (or any other Rad fabricator) direct.

Rds, Rob
