Hi!
I am Steve from Moto Hose. I joined here when a customer sent me a link where others were looking to have Silicone Radiator Hoses made for their KXT250 Tecate's.
I am happy to say that we are in the process of making this happen!
I have been in the MC industry since 1980 and remember watching the 3 wheelers racing in Maryland. There was a guy named Teddy Trey that flew on them....and I also remember a son of a local Yamaha shop put a YZ490 motor into his Tri-Zinger 3 wheeler frame.... :crazy: FAST!
Not a 3 wheeler but this is my bike.

Welcome as well...Please link your site for pimping product. I was wondering how much interest you need to create hose sets? Your competition in the UK made hoses for the TRI-Z (84-86' all the same) The story goes he was broken into and someone stole those molds. He never made new ones....Why? I believe his cost and the shipping put his product to the USA on the non affordable list and sales were few. Lets just say the price was $50 over a current YZf set without shipping from the UK. So my question is...are your prices near his or less on current products. How many sets do you need to create a new product(with a prepay type 1st run)? Are you interested in expanding your product to Vintage ATC? Obviously sales aren't gonna make you rich and I understand paying back the mold and you need to keep the lights on. So does Moto-Hose have interest in a select market of Vintage racers? Sorry to bombard you but I'm interested in a set or 2. Thanks

If you compare apples to apples with models we offer only radiator hoses for....... our prices against both CV4 & Samco are less expensive for the same manufacturing quality and materials.
What sets us apart from everyone else is that our complete bike kits include the carb, gas, tank vent, trans vent and radiator overflow hoses. On the older models like the 3 wheelers our carb hoses make them into the newer / better breathing loop system like shown on this Blaster.......at about the same prices as the competitions charge for just the radiator hoses.
