Are there any decent suppliers for these hoses ?? Most of the stock ones on wifes bike are rooted and Samco's must be cheaper than Honda's

Only found one (and that was on ebay UK).
Anyone recommend a supplier ? Don't want to end up with a dodgy chinese ripoff....

Well this has been a complete farce from the start...
Went to RaceBikeBitz.....and once I made them realise that they could not charge me VAT as I was not in the EU they ordered some up.....About 5 weeks later they turned up here....
Excitedly I opened the package....obviously their idea of 'complete' is different to mine. The 2 from the block to the water pump were missing as was the one that goes down around the starter motor.....as well as all the 1/4" ones to the radiator....
So I got on the phone...
'Oh yeah, They (samco) have updated their kit....We'll send out the extra ones.....Another 45 pounds please

(at least I got them freepost this time)
Got them today and......no 1/4" hoses...or hoses clips....so the wifes naked 400 still has a mix of black and purple hoses...
I have emailed them....I await their reply....

Useless reply for racebike...so I rang Samco direct and spoke to Mark Smith.
Bearing in mind they don't deal direct with the public...(you have to go through a dealer)....I have a 2m length of 1/4" purple on its way to me F.O.C. as a goodwill gesture.
