What radiator hoses are you using for your conversions?

Call the parts department and tell them what you are doing, they will point you in the right direction.

So they use a special configuration or is it a combination of the stock hoses?

Lumpy,
From the post & pics here on the forum its a combination of both. If you search here you will see pics a statements on what has to be changed and whats the same.
The member AJ here is the man behind Service Honda/Kawasaki & the one responsible for getting the aluminum framed 500s to everyone (like me)that does not have the Fab talent to make his own. I know they are running a different hose from the pump to the cylinder (the neck is rotated 180) & they are swapping radiators (left to right / right to left?) which I would assume would need different hoses as well. Poke around on the site & you will see plenty of pics to answer your question.
Hope the info is of help.
