    CRF450R Header and Radiator Hose Question

    by MuddinMulisha54 » Tue Mar 27, 2007 5:08 pm

    I have an 05 CRF450R that I just put a White Brothers Aluminum Pro full system on. The header pipe runs very close to the radiator hose coming off of the radiator. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem, and or has any ideas on how to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Typical with aftermarket pipes. You may want to shield the hose or the pipe. I've seen some wrap foil around the rad hose...not pretty, but works.

    Thanks for the info. I was thinking about wrapping the hose with the "Thermo-Sleeve" by Thermo-Tec http://www.thermotec.com/products/full/14005/14005.html
    I was also thinking of trying to re-rout the hose, but wasn't sure if it would have any impact on cooling.
