2012 450/500af Radiator hose routing?

(1/2) > >>

Pbeaud01:
Hey guys I'm having trouble figuring out the routing of the hoses for my radiators on my 500af build. On the right radiator I understand the bottom hose goes directly into the water pump but where does the one go that's towards the bottom and at a 45 deg pointing to the engine? Also, from the cylinder head , does the hose go down to the radiator nipple on the left radiator right next to it or does it go up and make a connection at the top? I'm getting confused on this. I tried searching for that PDF file on the how to build a 500af but had no luck. Does anyone have a drawing for he  modified 450 radiators? It seems like here is more crossover than was on the old 500

Check your email!

Thank you kxpegger. One more question, what are my options as far as hoses? If like a set of blue hoses but service honda won't sell me a set so is there another option for finding hoses, specifically I need the correct size diameter and would love the bend for the top end to bottom end on the right side of motor.

KXDINO:
What wrong with service Honda ? don't they like business , find another source.

i got a green set of silicone hoses though u could choose other colours on ebay for a cheap £28.99 delivered, thought to cheep to be good but were good quality, kit was for kx500 1995 came with everything i needed and a few spare bends etc that were not for the bike or one kit fits all, the people were helpfull and when i needed a straight section to make something work they sent it no problems, I'm sure if u email them what u need lengths etc someone can help.
