Third post in a row...  :o  woops!

Anyway, I have now heard back from all ten who origionally showed interest in the group buy.

The bad news is that only 6 of us are still up for it. I've posted on a few other forums telling people about the group buy but might take a while to get anyone else that way but i'll keep trying. I'm happy to buy two kits which leaves us 3 kits down.  I know Fraser has said he'll buy two kits if needed so looks like that might be needed after all Mr Nog, if you're still up for it. This leaves us two kits short. Anyone got any other ideas??

If we got nine together I might be able to stretch to 3 kits and then try and sell them on after just to get the deal done but that'd really be stretching me, especially depending on what any extra tooling cost their might be..

I hope this all makes sense as i've just come off a nightshift.. haha  :z

All the best,

Chris

Don't panic yet! I'm sure a few more peps will be along shortly. There's a taster below for everyone but don't forget you can go for black ones if you don't fancy a colour

Those pipes sure look good Dude!!!

can't wait to see how much faster i go with them on.

im still go for 2 sets, i toyed with 3 but i cant stretch that far,if my girlfriend doesnt get her engagement ring because ive got a shed full of hoses then i'll be drinking through a hose when she's finished with me :'( , if i could justify to myself that it was a small money making opportunity to buy 3 sets then i would but i'd most likely just be getting back what i'd spent.

only trouble with waiting is that some of the current confirmed could well drop out by the time we get others.

fair play though we're mighty close.

WOW! Nice find Mr Dude, they look awesome!

Mr Nog, that is totally understandable and i'd be doing the same (ir selling them on, to forum members at least, at the price we are getting them) so hopefully after seeing that pic it'll inspire at least one more person to come forward!

I know this has all moved quite fast up to this point so just hoping we can get over this bump in the road!

I would love to, but unfortunately I'm short of funds at the moment and the fazer has a long shopping list of mods. Hopefully by the time i can afford there will be some available.

Hi Panthor,

No worries buddy. It'll be a few weeks before we have to pay for them so if you'd be interested then you'd have time to save up a bit  8)

Had the bike out earlier for a bit of a check over & general jiggery pokery, took a swatch at the various hoses & these upgraded ones are gonna look the business,the semi naked nature of the fazer will really show them off unlike some other bikes where you might only see a smidgen of hose here & there, i really believe it will take off with others when they see them on.


Hope we can muster up a couple more candidates before the good,hot,scorchio weather comes. 8)

i had a mooch online to see if you could get coloured jubilee clips but to no avail,

it appears that because of the job they do they need to be made of steel but then it was a cursory search,perhaps the hose geezer can prove me wrong.

ok so ive taken a look at the hose place's price list & taken a spread of 10 different kits ranging from 1 hose kits to 12 hose kits...
(not the most accurate method but i didnt want to get the average over his whole range as there's allot of bikes on the list) :z ...

there's obviously so much variation between each different bike but for arguments sake on the basis of these 10 the average price per hose (including vat) churns out at - £21.90 per hose.

given that this kit has 9 hoses then it would be safe to say that in theory the kit RRP could be as high as - £197.40. if you don't buy it now through this group buy.

the price we pay inluding vat is £100.00 plus postage is an excellent deal indeed.

The price I listed is the full price we will pay for each kit. I'm just waiting to hear back about if they supply clips or not. if not then you could reuse the clips holding your current pipes on or a few quid at any hardware store will get you a good assortment of marine quality stainless steel clips. As I say, just waiting to hear back from him.

I totally agree buddy! As said before, once we get this original order done at this price then to buy it individually later will cost you quite a bit more  Sad

The point I think Mr Noggy is making is that the average price of the pipes in this kit is about £11 instead of in most kits where the average price per hose is over £20... Am I correct Mr Nog?  8)  It certainly screams "good deal" to me  Big Grin

i agree swem, sorry, my waffling wasnt entirely clear,ive modified it a bit.

But i'm willing to chat more shit about anythin, even more than usual,even hair splitting, in an attempt to keep this topic on the board, i feel like i'm working for QVC trying to sell a £2 travel clock & being on the air for 1 hour, there's only so much you can say about hoses, i'll need to resort to direct quotes from the website soon or perhaps alternative uses for non motorbikers.

come on, 2 more buyers,that's all we need & then everyone can be saved from my desperate bleeting :'(

:lol  I love the spirit Mr Nog, Although,  Don't spam the thread too much or some people might miss the important info and just see the pep talk  :lol

The price/discount and the quality of the product speak for themselves. We'll get the kits one way or another. Just waiting to hear back from my posts on other forums so will hopefully get some interest that way, and another person or two from here, which will take us to the magic number (which in this case is ten)  8)
