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.

I tried to order a spare blue set a couple of years ago but they only had green and weren't planning on anymore blue. SH gets a little territorial with some of their stuff at times from reading other posts. I don't know if their suppliers are a little slow or SH doesn't want to sell their inventory and maybe come up short for a build. Maybe they think everyone has a spare 12K for an entire AF bike? I don't have any problems getting AF parts from SH because I bought my AF from them. They've always been helpful where my AF is concerned.

I did have a problem a few years back with some Suzuki plastic that I ordered. The front fender bag had been opened and the fender inside was not OEM even though the bag had an OEM label. They tried to make me out the scammer and would not agree to make it right unless I returned the fender and paid for shipping. How does that prove anything? I told the OEM sales manager that I had purchased an AF and parts for many years so why would I do this. Overall response was not positive. I run six dirt bikes and have not bought parts from them since then.
