Hi Cas
in some parts lists the inside diameter is mentioned.
I think it's 6mm inside, someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
Good luck

From memory 7mm, but whichever you get try and get some that's ethanol resistant.

I had to replace all the fuel pipe on a H1 recently which was less than a year old. The pipe had shrunk, had gone very brittle and started to split!. :shock:

Hi Guys

I never use E95 since the amount of ethanol increased to 10%, I allways use Super + 98.
They put ethanol inside because the world leaders think that rabbits are very important !!!
Do their planes fly on ethanol too? :mrgreen:

Agree with Philippe - I only fill up bikes with the 'Superunleaded' options - and only the 95 octane regular unleaded when I have no choice.
(although over here the ethanol content is still only 5% I believe)
