new oil lines - where can I get them
« on: October 29, 2011, 04:48:02 AM »
Hello
I thought I saved the place to get new oil lines to my favorites but now can't find it.
Any one know where I can get new oil lines for a CB750
Preferably stainless
Please and Thanks

He also sells the regular oil hoses, too.  You'll need to re-use the ends off of your old ones, though.

Find a local industrial hose shop they should be able to make up some new stainless lines using your old fittings.  These will be crimped on and much better than the hose clamp ones Carpy sells.  I had a set made up for $40...

or Classic cycle city as Mick suggested.

Mick was it you I was talking to about the exhuast system several months ago. I want to get one from Cycle x but will consider others if they are easier to get hold of

G'day Mick
I'm after an exhuast that "sounds good" and is loudish.
One that I looked at from Cycle x is the 4-2-1 race system. Don't know how hard it is to get an exhuast sent out to Oz though

I had a yoshi replica in stainless made up in the States but to keep shipping dowm i had the tailpipe made to release with springs so it was a 2 piece system, Chris {moto gp werks}shipped it for free but it would have been expensive in one piece. So my advice is to try and buy a system that pulls apart other wise it will cost more than the pipe is worth to ship.....
