If i wanted to get these hoses on today can i just buy some generic coolant from halfords??? it's a bit thin on the ground down here regards bike garages,anyone know what spec it should be???
The stuff that's in my bike at the moment came from Halfords - I think its Orange?
First though, I think I have a coolant leak so need to solve that before changing the hoses over and ideally I need it to warm up, or for my damn garage to finally be finished :rolleyes

What makes you think you have a coolant leak?

Well when the bike starts, coolant leaks from drainage hole in the fins and appears to be coming from somewhere above and dripping on to the plugs...
Keep forgetting to check it when I get back from a ride

Probably just condensation due to engine heat and cold weather finding its way down to the spark plug area.
You get all sorts of unknown leakages once the bike cools down at night.
