fuel pipe?

Post by johnakay »

bought mine 2 years ago and its started to perish.
its suppose to be ethanol resistance which is obviously not.
what do you guys use as I need 5mm bore.
ebay is full of them but no mention of ethanol resistance.

Several claim things are ethanol resistant, but best to change petrol pipes every winter if they start to go hard/crack/discolour/go dodgy.

I always use genuine Suzuki. Easy to get now Discount Bike Spares are back in their new guise. If you buy the 600mm length or 2000mm you get a few cuts out of it. I find the genuine Suzuki lasts well.
