been considering getting them. do they really have any cooling or performance advantages or do they just look good? anybody use them?

Not sure about the performance benefits but i think they look good.

According to William Yokley's mechanic when he raced his KFX last year that they helped. I am seriously considering getting some, my quad has gotten hot a couple of times this year at races and I can't take that chance.

I have them on mine. They look good and appear to be larger than the stockers also.

I had them on my banshee and they only looked good. It still overheated as usual. I ended up going custom. Pro circuit is making an upgraded one. It has some different kind of pattern or something. When that comes out I'm sure everyone will run those instead of the cv4 IMO. TRy something different. The hot rod market makes tons of radiator hoses in larger diameters tat can be clamped on and they are clear. I had blue dye in my banshee and it looked sick!! For the kawie you wouldnt need dye cuz the coolant is already green. And the hoses dont help if you dont upgrade the pump. Im not sure but does ne one know if the boyesen is out yet??

If you want added performance. Pair them up with a pwr radiator and some water wetter.

well i got them. i let what fluid was in the radiator drain from the bottom hose and my reserve tank's completely full. i started it up and after five minutes the temp light came on. i'm assuming there isn't any coolant running through the hoses because the reserve tank is still full. am i missing something or what's going on? any help?

If you drained the bottom hose its empty the reservoir only emptys when your low and hot
