Looking for the cool chrome hose clamp covers (4 total) for the radiator hoses. I think Netherlands Suzuki Classic Parts used to have them, but not any more. Suzuki part # 17856-37002

I know it shows 4 in the parts list, but I have not seen an original bike with more than one. Just on the lower hose at the water pump connection. The radiator end of the lower hose is problematic for the cover with the fan shroud and oil cooler connection leaving no room for the screw on the clamp. GT 750 had 2 on the upper hose with a different part number that looked the same but maybe a little different size. They do turn up on E-Bay occasionally. Good Luck.

I don't think any of the production bikes meant for the public had more than 1.

I have 4 on mine and I bought it from its original owner who was a Suzuki mechanic specialised in RE5. I say "specialized" because he was one of the only 3 certified mechanics trained and autorized by Suzuki America to open and work on the rotor. It was its own motorcyle but I beleive they came that way from the factory anyway. Those cover aren't always easy to put back (specialy the upper one on the radiator side)and they have got lost or forgotten on the bikes which are missing them.

No bikes came from the factory with 4 covers, only one cover. The others were accessories.
Someone at a dealership might have sold one from the floor after putting the 3 other covers on it.
Just my 2 cents.

Yeah, worker at Suzuki dealership... Also in other news the dealership noticed three of their new RE5's were 'missing' their hose covers when assembled by that mechanic... (if it was you Tim, you know I'm only kidding!)
