Anybody have a good source?  I've called all the auto stores in my area and nobody has it. 

Thx

It's hard to find actual fuel line that's clear.  Lots of online retailers, though...google "clear fuel line" and you'll see a lot.  Pro-Flo carries it.

Last time I bought fuel line, I got it on ebay from "fuellineguy". It was blue but he had other colors, not sure about clear. Main thing I wanted was 5/16" ID tubing.

I just bought some stuff from Home Depot or Lowes.  So far it's worked great (about 6 months), and I have plenty to replace lines in case I need to.

Really? Was it marked as "fuel safe"?  I worry about regular nylon tubing breaking down over time but I guess it's easy enough to swap out if necessary.  Wouldn't want to have it happen on the road though...

the Lowes stuff is..... OK
it will work for 6-12 months
it starts to turn yellow and turns into a rock and starts to leak after time

but it is like $0.12 a foot so buy 6 ft and you have enuff for 4-5 yrs

Right on!!!   I use food grade coke dispenser lines  (  I know I know..so shadup!!) I don't need a million post saying how wrong it is.

But I keep about ten feet. El Cheapo Clear lines and a clear glass filter.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHa

What you need to look for is "TYGON".  It is gasoline safe.

It is supposedly chemical safe.  But I'll check the hose packaging again, when I find my parts box.

yup yup. wormscrew type.  especially with el cheapo gear.
If you go the cheap route be sure to check your lines before every trip and change them out often. 

Yea, I'm just worried about the next owner of my bike.  I'm planning to keep it for a year or two and then move up to something bigger.  I don't want to put the next owner in a position where he'll have to worry about it.  I'll spend a little quality time with Google and see what I can come up with, thanks everybody.
