Anyone know the ID of the fuel hose that goes to the feul tap? 6mm? or is it 8mm?

What about the ID of the line going from the top of the fuel pump to the carbs( I am assuming that is the correct feed line)?

I think it`s 6mm(1/4"),it`s certainly smaller than the one already mentioned. :wink:

stock is 8mm ID.. if you ask for "8mm fuel hose" it should be a stock size.

It tends to stretch a bit too.. With some vasoline (petroleum jelly ?) you can get it on / over the barb

All Japanese have been metric for goodness knows how long.. so 1/4" (6.35mm) is not really its size.. But 5/16" hose would indeed work in this case. But ask for 8mm
