crankcase breather pipe

Post by Sir Brixalot »

Wotcha! I am struggling to find a replacement for crankcase breather pipe, Does anyone know where I can get one. I have tried a standard hose but it keeps getting pinched/kinked.

cheers

the correct diameter (guessing its 19mm??) black, plastic, wire reinforced water pipe (camping shops online sell loads of it)
does the job well and costs less.

Thanks for your input, hedged my bets and bought Brickwerks pipe and some reinforced hose as the existing pipe seems to foul the accelerator spring.
