replaced mine last year with bright yellow ones, got a length of 3M for about £12, bit over the top I know but what the hell.

try any kit car manufacturer, making sure they are to SVA standard.

Cheers Mark.

Cheers Mate,

Any idea who does any mail order????

I dont know if there needed, but i decided i should start to stick to the service shedule, they seem unaged, but the last thing i want is knackered petrol hoses, peeing petrol over a hot engine!

and the carbs are off the bike at the moment any way so seems worth while!

If they're still soft and squeezable they'll be fine for another year.

You may as well take your tank off while you're at it and clean your fuel tap too. Dont want that getting clogged.
