oil lines
« on: August 05, 2015, 08:27:46 PM »
Ok, i know i'm being lazy, but anyone have suggestions for oil feed lines? I'm thinking 1/8" ID? is Nitrile what i want?
I got major leaks going on. My lines are rock hard. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

There are several threads on here about oil lines. I think the weapon of choice is 1/8" ID clear PVC fuel line. It can be found on ebay and elsewhere.
Here's an example thread:

One of my experienced Bridgestone colleagues just pointed out an error here. The original oil lines were metric spec, 3mm ID. Thanks DL.

Thanks for the replies gentlemen. I cleaned everything up to find the leak and I think it is my feed hose. It leaks without the bike running so I figured a hose or banjo fitting. it looks like the feed hose to the injector is rock hard and leaking around the nipple. The 1/8" injector lines are pretty supple and I don't see any leakage there. I think I will go with tygon or something. Does 3/16" ID sound about right? Maybe I suck at searches, but I cant find anything regarding size.........
Thanks
