Kirby G5 Hose Color

[louvac]

Can someone tell me what color(s) the hose was to the G5 model?

What my supplier sent me seems kind of strange to me. the hose is grey with the deep burgundy ends which almost look black in poor lighting. Is this correct/original?

Post a pic if possible.

Thanks
Louis

Yes this is the right colors for the g5 hose.

Just went out to the vacuum room myself Louis, Gray hose and burgundy ends. Terry

Louis,

I also believe that is correct. I repaired a G5 for some friends and that is the right color combo.

I personally wish they would go back to the old style tools, adding a brush strip to the upholstery tool, changing the bare floor tool to a horse hair and go back to the original Turbo Cat style turbo tool...

Kirby's will always be TOPS in my book. My moms 508 will still out clean most of the new stuff on the market today, user friendly and durable.
