Any Interest in Samco Silicone Hoses for the VF700 / VF750

XS650RR · Apr 11, 2015

I'm just trying to gauge what the interest would be on having Samco manufacture a complete rad hose kit for the VF700 / VF750 (83-85). Below is the email I received during my inquiry from Samco.

Dear Ian,

Many thanks for the message that you sent to SamcoSport, this has been passed onto us, Racebikebitz Ltd as their European distributor to answer.
This is a kit we would consider bringing onto production but we do not yet have it available.

If we had demand for around 20 kits and a donor set of hoses we could definitely do something. If you were able to donate the original hoses as templates for the factory to keep and be the one to help generate the interest through means of a forum or owners club we could supply your set foc in exchange for efforts. The tooling cost is quite high so we need to have this minimum order to justify the start up costs. If you can initiate we can of course handle all the customers names and payments etc. We would need the pre-orders and interest 1st though to validate the tooling costs.

It will take around 6 weeks and then we can send all. You would get the set 1st and do a trial fit. If you are unable to have bike of the road time maybe someone else you know is able ? We would not have a price until we had a set of hoses but always a fair price just depends on how many hoses and complexity.

Please let me know and look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards

Please give it some thought, as these hoses are becoming impossible to locate. Let me know your thoughts on this and we can proceed from there. I understand that cost will dictate interest, however we need to start somewhere.

Thanks all ... look forward to hearing your input.

Measure your own and a third of the Samco price.
