Default Should radiator hoses be touching engine? Cbr600f 2006

Hi,

I was looking at my bike today and I noticed 2 hoses from the radiator brush against the engine block. I saw them by looking at the right hand side of the bike through the hole in the fairing. The bike got quite hot from riding and didn't seem to damage the hoses.

​​​​​​Just want to know if this is normal or if I need to look into it further!

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is normal. Figure that the coolant is flowing through the engine, so those hoses are flowing liquid that is at the same temp (or close) as the engine.
