My new hose is doing the same thing. I just read a few other threads that point to the plastic inserts of the old hose as being invaluable for the noise reduction.
The original hose was well covered in a plastic foam jacket and supported at two points with grommets (all of which was brittle and now gone). I presumed the wrap was for heat as it's on the portion of the hose that runs past the block and exhaust.
I will endeavor to find a similar hose wrap and new grommets and see if the noise level changes.
