Does anyone know if there are like some kind of steel braided radiator hoses out there, I was thinking because my step dad has a harley and it has the braided stuff on it and it looks pretty sweet.

Anyone know if these will fit? Are these what you were referring to?

Edelbrock Hoses through Summit Racing (http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=EDL%2D8095&N=700+4294924500+115&autoview=sku)

Here in Portland Oregon by looking in the yellow pages under hoses. I ended up getting some "true"stainless braided hoses(not a wrap) for my R for about half of what i see on e-bay.The hose itself is pressure rated to 1100lbs can withstand heat to 475 and really looks good.So for about $75.00 i ended up with 4 1/2 ft and 6 anodized red aluminum "super-clamps" (they look very similer to the end pieces that summit sells). I would just start making some phone calls and do some digging as i know their out there....J P.S they had ALL sizes in stock from 3/8th to 6'' so im also going to use the for my fuel and brake resevior lines with the red end clamps....SWEET!!

BTW - what diameter did you end up buying?

Thanks!

Like i said im not sure of the actual inside or outside diameter but i will find out and post. I am very excited about using them on a smaller scale as well(rear brake resevior to master cylinder line) and anything else,,,,gas lines,coolant resevior overflow fill line and anything else i can think of without going overboard.And the contact person there is Randy(he doesnt know it yet but...)They also can custon make any line with Hardware similer to the Afco aftermarket style hose couplers in a variety of colors...Give em a call..Ltr all...J
