I have used them on civic but never for a bike. They are a great hose. little pricy but well worth it.

sometimes i run my turbo bike naked,"without fairings" in which case these would come in good for the look. i agree it is expensive to be hidden.

I use them on all my bikes. Very nice hoses.
I got a red set on my '02 LE

That's a whole lotta change for some hoses. Don't buy the "running cooler" for one minute. They should hold up better, but ordinary hoses last a long long time on most water cooled engines.

Airplanes use a lot of silicone hoses, but almost all of those are air cooled engines and the consequences of catastrophic failure are much higher when you're 10,000 feet above ground level.

I don't see much advantage for a bike other than cosmetic.

....and your point is?

yep... the silicone is nice for aircraft because of the temp extremes.. gets pretty chilly up there and "rubber" hoses can get pretty stiff.. not a good option with a lot of vibration..

Will rest my cases and decided not to buy those hoses. Case close. THanks everyones advice..
