Hey RB, does your invoice cover just post '01 parts or would an '00 configuration be the same? Thanks, BD
Yes. The only difference would be where they thread into th cooler and the block. Those are the four adapters for the AN lines.

Reviving an old post.  Finally got around to doing the oil cooler line rerouting.  Ordered a Hyper oil line kit from Fren Tubo via their US distributor PJ's Parts.  Lots of different styles of lines and fittings to choose from and PJ's was great to work with.  Below are before and after pics.

looks good!
would you mine providing the part numbers for the Fren Tubo's for other riders?

Now just reroute the starter &  oil temp lines to clean it up further

I always disliked how the OE oil cooler line routing was done over the beltcovers.  Glad to know how to fix it.  Now I need to update my future mods list  ;D

BTW - Redduck (aka patorojo) That is one gorgeous redhead.  [thumbsup]  (maybe just get rid of that frame sticker  :-\)

looks incredible!

(wondering where the framer sticker critics are [popcorn])

Straight bolt on hypermotard hose, its got the advantage that all the fitting look the same as the OE ones.



Hey Monstyr,
That looks good.  How much was the HM hose?  Do you still have the part number by any chance?
TIA  [thumbsup]

Sorry, I'm a little slow replying to this.  There wasn't a part number per se.  Dealing with PJ's, there was a lot of interaction to get everything just right.  The bottom line was it was Fren Tubo's Hypermotard "kit" but you have to specify the color of fittings that you want, the hose material, and the hose cover.  For what I installed, my invoice read:

"Fren Tubo Radiator Hose Kit, Type 2 Stainless/Aluminum, for Ducati Hypermotard, RED FITTINGS, BLACK SLEEVES"

QuoteNow just reroute the starter &  oil temp lines to clean it up further

Yes that is next on my list.  The starter cable seems easy enough, I have been a little nervous about the oil temp line as changing the circuit resistance could lead to an improper reading.

BTW, as noted above yes, you can just order from Ducati the stock Hyper upper hose and be done.  However, my dealer quoted me more for the just that one hose than I paid for the pair with the cool anodized fittings  ;D

Don't be nervous about the oil temp, as long as you don't splice in a mile of wire, it'll be fine.
