Oil pipe hose
« on: March 31, 2017, 11:00:11 PM »
I've got to make up a set of oil lines for the CR750 project - I'm using an early cbr600 oil cooler to the standard CB750 engine fittings.
I'd like to make them up myself if possibe but if not I will have them made up.
Can anybody make any recommendations for suppliers?
Thanks

Anyone in your area that makes up hydraulic lines should be able to make them up for you.

I brought a set from wemoto, HEL oil lines and fittings, will report later if they hold up. But they are wire braded and mini screw worm fittings , see link below. They are a bugger to fit and line up, very stiff to install, and the fittings are rubbish and don't fully tighten as the screws just keep turning. But they should hold ok for now and I will change them in the winter for better fitting oil lines. No leaks yet, but have not had the engine running yet. But when researching the same as you, found out that cyclexchange in us sells the hose by the ft which is what I may order later and new fittings. Or if I can find some same diameter pipe work will make up set myself.

Thanks the reply - the lines are not standard due to CR750 rep oil tank and oil cooler so will need non standard lines.
I have just realised that due to the inclusion of the oil cooler, I need extra lines/fittings so I'm short of the oil pipe in the picture. Has anyone got one to sell - it can be knacked as long as fittingsare serviceable
Thanks
