    New modifications!! Today it was time to install the AS3 cooling hoses and brake pad coolers.

    Some more photos and I have already taken advantage and have also put a high pressure radiator cap

  3. That top radiator hose is not easy to get to! My Daytona has all of the radiator piping replaced with silicone, except for that top left one :(

    Yes, the truth is that access is quite complicated!! The only easy one is the bottom of the radiator, it is all visible and there is space to put your hands. In the others it is quite complicated and I have also made it more complicated, because I have not removed the intake body (the butterflies) and I have suffered quite a bit.:wall:
     
  5. Nice mods to help keep temperatures under control on those hot Spanish trackdays, -3c here at the moment:eek:.

    Haven't seen brake pad coolers before, only cooling ducts.
    I think the standard cap is 1.1 bar so if my maths is anywhere near (probably not) that cap should raise the pressure by approx 6.5 psi and the water boiling point by 10c, presumably why you need the uprated hoses.

    It's cold here too!! Already in March the temperatures begin to rise and the weather is beginning to get better for riding.

    I saw the pad coolers on UKRS a few months ago and I thought they might come in handy, anything that helps maintain better brake temperatures is appreciated.

    And the 1.6 high pressure cap, from what I was reading, they only recommend it with reinforced hoses, an original one could burst.
    You see the original ones and the reinforced ones in this case of AS3 performance and they have nothing to do with each other, especially in the wall thickness and also in the INOX metal flanges, much wider and harder.
