    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Fuel lines - for gs550e

This is going to sound a daft question but I simply cannot find good, flexible
fuel lines for my bikes. Not just the gs550e.

Could anyone part with information as to where they get them from ?

GS550e fuel tap size:

fuel connector - 8mm - Thus fuel line id - 7mm
Vacuum connector - 7mm - Thus fuel line id - 6mm

I intend to find and install new fuel lines and as we all know to do this the airbox has
to be pulled back and putting that back on is a practice that can cause mental meltdown.
 
Thanks BUT
Is there a 3rd party location for fuel lines where i can buy for all my bikes ? Stuff that works ?

Looking at that part number and knowing how they work that looks like:
m6 id * m10 od and 600mm long ?

I suppose that is the one and i should think no more on the matter. I think you are right - buy i will - thanks.
 
When you get that fuel line Suzuki provides about 5 feet in the bag. It's actually a pretty good value for the money.
 
Jules, go to Halford they sell various sizes of fuel pipe. You may have to ask at the parts counter, they don't always have them on the shop racks. They are in 1 metre lengths. When are you starting the journey ?.
 
The journey will start this year. It might start
within 2 weeks as I find myself unemployed again.

Just getting spares etc ready but I am basically
ready now !
The route to Croatia and Italy not planned but I'll
Follow the weather .

I'll provide a post on the epic journey !
