Colour Petrol Hose Replacement

 



 I felt this meter long high temperature 8mm petrol hose was a bargain at RM7 so bought put it on trial. When received, I found it has silicone soft flexibility so that should be able to withstand beating from the Malaysian weather. The 8mm fits well with the 8mm aluminium petrol filter and will be a fine replacement against my current 7 year old aging set thus I plan to get a few more to differentiate other hoses. I added a few more colours to distinguish colour by function:
  1. Purple for petrol line
  2. Red for carburettor
  3. Orange for petrol tank excess flow
  4. Green for spark pug cable (as bought)

Matching Gear Lever Replacement

 

As I just bought the footpeg replacements, I could not resist buying these matching gear lever replacement which sold for RM12 inclusive of transport cost. It too similarly feels solid and is of good quality. Anyway one of the rubber attachments on the stock gear lever is already loose and unlike the footpeg's rubber attachment, is not sold separately.

Aluminum petrol filter replacement

 


 I am sure this RM12 solid petrol filter inclusive of transport cost will be able to take the trashing from Malaysian weather and should last a lifetime. I tried and found the 8mm petrol hose is a perfect fit ... with some effort and will soon fit improved custom petrol hose clips to it.
