This is probably a really basic/stupid question but can someone tell me where the hoses go re header tank to radiator (top and bottom hoses) to engine and back. I have a fireblade in an MK with no header tank and want to fit one although i have no coolant problems its really just for ease for checking......any help greatly appreciated

Presuming its a carbed version see below sketchs found on this site kindly supplied by ChrisGamlin.
