CB750 K2: Anybody have a spare set of oil lines

<< < (2/3) > >>

Bryanj:
Tanks are a different shape but you can have an F tank as well

royhall:
Could be the K2 has a different route for the pipes than the F2? As Bryan says the tanks are different. I have a spare F2 tank you can have if Bryan can't find his. What about connecting to the tank first then measuring the o-ring end to see how much too long it is, then you can have the guy remake that hose.

rhos1355:
Ok, gonna give it another try this arvo but I don't hold much hope.
The measuring the distance trick is a bit of a long shot 'cos there is only one route the pipe should take and that's the proper route which is a bit hit and miss to replicate with a coat-hanger wire or something. You can only verify the proper length and route once you've assembled the hose to the fittings and then to the tank to the engine.
At least that's my take on it.
Royhall, the hoses on your first pic seems the dog's, where did you have them made?

rhos1355:
have just spotted some hoses on e-bay............I'll lay down a bid on those and see what happens.

royhall:
Had the hoses made at a local hydraulics supplier in Thornton-Cleveleys called Powerfit, on Redmarsh Industrial Estate. He did say they were a pig to do. But importantly I took him the 4 polished alloy ends and a full set of pipes for him to copy as you need to get the angles perfect. Particularly on one of the pipes (cant remember which now). They were a bit stiff to go on at first, but certainly not a brute force fit. Sounds like one of yours is a good way too long.
