    No Art,

    It's the actual filler neck (with the rad cap on it). It bolts to the same point as the top mount for the expansion tank.

    As it's just the mount that snapped I was thinking of just glueing it back together, but I know how much of a perfectionist I am (I did wait over two months for a set of hoses :D)

    Also, I think I may have goosed my battery :mad:

    I left it connected for the two months it sat there and I now only have 5v in it :(

    Hoses finally fitted :)

    Can't test them though, due to the flat battery :(

    Also managed to snap the mount for the radiator filler neck :( (you can see it in the last pic)

    Ha, took me a while but I'm on the case... thought Orange maybe a step too far on the already very orange Repsol and they should fit in well with the red graphic..

    Ray,

    Did they ever sort out the issues with the 2012 hose set?

    Never heard back if they did or not mate, if I remember it only needed one hose changing from the 2008-2011 Fireblade.

    But looking at their website they now have a kit listed for the 2012-2013 Fireblade (HON-82).
