Fitting the Vapor unit and it says "cut radiator hose and install temp sensor" which hose? Top one or bottom one? Any thoughts.

Glyn,
If you follow the wire from the old original temp sensor to where it goes into the hose on the rad (it screws into a brass (?) connector), you can probably put the new sensor in the same position, to save cutting the hose? If not, put it close by? Think the sensor is on the hose top right as you sit on the bike.

thanks for info. I will have to cut the hose as the sender is moulded into a hose joiner but least I know which hose.
