I bought a metre of the PJME pipe last month after seeing it recommended on another thread. They also do the wire fuel line clips too and it all looks to be decent quality. |

Tygon is ok and I've used it in the past. I have lots of it...
It doesn't tend to stay on the 'push on' parts of the carbs like overflows etc.
It was never designed to be used as a pipe and as such doesn't grip very well.
I have now reverted to clear fuel pipe and will just change it each year.

Bad batch of Tygon? Wrong size possibly?
Tygon is V good Fueline. Has been for me.
Some it over 10 years old and it retains good grip and flex qualities.

The kart fuel pipe seems good for the price, but only available in 6mm bore, which is okay for LC carbs.

Norbo is selling genuine Yam ! why would you not use him (that) ? it's top quality, I bought mine a while back (before finding Norbo) and the length that you get is enough for two or three bikes, replaced mine and put the rest in stock (and it is as cheap as spurious stuff)

I use lots of Tygon of various sizes, I buy 50m rolls at a time. It doesn't like staying on tapered spigots without some sort of barb. It was originally designed as an insulator for fibre optics not a fuel pipe, we're just lucky that it suits our needs. |
