Sure this is in the wiki.. and has been asked recently..
7mm at the tank and 5.6mm everywhere else.. DONT use 1/4"/6mm its too big.. 5.6mm fuel injection hose is what I use...
works on the expansion tank breather pipes too

Yep if you are going to order from Si
Your local motorfactors will most likely only have the 5.6mm "fuel injection hose"
