Samco Coolant Hoses... Who's Interested?

#1 Post by Lttlcheeze » Fri Oct 19, 2012 1:09 pm

So who else here is planning on keeping their Falco forever?? :D

I've been in contact with Samco, currently they don't offer a set of Coolant hoses for the Falco. But they told me if I can get 10 orders together and a set of hoses. They will manufacturer and carry them in stock.

They said they can do an "intro offer" for the initial group buy. I'm not sure of the actual price break, still waiting for a reply on that. But currently a set of their hoses goes for about $240. Not cheap I know.

I'll be doing an engine swap this winter and would like to replace the aging OE hoses with something that should last much longer.

If your intersested please post up and let me know.

I posted this on AF1 also.

Is there a big difference between a Mille hose set up and a Falco.

Coolant tanks are different and located differently - not sure about other parts.


Bill - I have no plans to sell my Falco but don't think I can run to that sort of cost for a set of hoses to just keep on my shelf until I need them.

Hope you do find enough people to make this worthwhile though.

I do really like samco hoses, really nice pieces of kit. Unfortunately I can't justify that kind of cash for a faired bike... Good luck though mate.
