Fuel hose size on 1150 adv?

[Flanners]

Not near the bike can anyone tell me the fuel hose size on the 1150 Adv please? Is it 6 or 8mm? Ta

8mm... and remember you'll need injector quality hose. Which hose are you talking about anyway?

 

[Ian J Hartley]

8mm internal diameter

Which fuel hose ? two sizes on an 1150 ADV tank. 6mm and 8mm.

The fuel supply and return hose, and the tank cross over hose

 

[Flanners]

It is for the hose nearest the front of the bike with the quick release coupling (not the 90 degree one)

 

[Canuck]

So the one that links one side of the tank to the other? Should run under your altenator...

 

[Flanners]

No it is not that one. It is the first of the other two which appear matching, working from the front of the bike back.

Petrol is weeping from the clamp area on the male part of the QR, from my recent QR connector failure I guess. The hose was cut badly and has degraded and the cotton weave is visible at the end allowing petrol seepage and is now too short to cut back so needs replacing. Sorry about the useless description. So not the crossover hose but return/supply one......

 

[Canuck]

8mm internal, SAE30R9 spec. SHould be something like 13mm external diameter. Most hose vendors in industrial units are likely to stock it.

Lovely cheers, just off to get some.

 

[Uncle Rob]

its easy the one that runs under the tank by the alternator is 6mm
and the other two that are under the plastic cover on the off side are 8mm
