【DRC】Radiator hose kit Review

It's just a different look ….

I decided to replace the hose with a new one in conjunction with RadiatorCleaning and Coolant replacement for DRZ400sm k9, which had probably never been maintained. I wanted to change the appearance as much as possible, so I bought a DRC Hose set.
I really don't think it will be any different from the OEM in terms of performance, just a different look.
Since the coolant must be removed when replacing the coolant, it is best to change it together with the coolant replacement time.
Or when you plant a Water Temperature Sensor between hoses.
Well, we have to say goodbye to coolant anyway.
The handling is the same as the OEM, so there are no problems.
Band is also diverted from OEM as it is.
If I had to say, this Hose was more difficult to push into the back than the OEM Hose.
Maybe because it's brand new.
Reviewing the current situation since the replacement has been in place for 3-4 months, I do not see any deterioration of the hose itself, but the color has already faded.
It was bright red when purchased but has faded.
I think it's especially - because it's a Red color.
Recommended for those who want to change their look and feel. View detail

The color is so-so Parenthesis nice

Radiator hose and Coolant replaced at the same time. I like the color Parenthesis. The performance is the same, but the feeling is a little different. I had a hard time inserting the hose clamp at the back of the engine, but it can be replaced with a normal tool. Please note that you will need to replace the OEM Drain Washer after you remove the Coolant. View detail

Great look, fits perfect

The hoses are much thicker than stock.Fits perfectly and looks good. If these hold up I don't know why you would spend so much more on other brands. This is a very nice product and solid upgrade from stock hoses for a competitive price. The kit included two hoses for my machine and eliminated the stock thermostat assembly and a bunch of clamps and hoses. While red was the only color choice, it looks pretty good. The hose shapes and sizes are preformed properly requiring little effort for install and clearance. rubber hose hardens over time and is difficult to remove, silicone hose is very easy to disassemble.My only dislike is that the silicone is easily chewed up by the hose clamps.I'd buy these again.

Replaced due to discoloration

I replaced it because it was Brown.
The product is sensitive to ultraviolet rays and discolors, so be careful if the product is parked in a garage that is often exposed to sunlight. View detail
