    Hi,
    I need to replace the fuel hose (betwixt the tank and filter) on my
    99-ZX-6R. The problem is one end needs to be slightly bigger than the other
    and all the fuel hoses at Clark Rubber and Autobarn are reinforced and won't
    stretch to fit the bigger end.
    Any ideas who might sell such a thing in Melbourne? Or should I just bite
    the bullet and order the kwak part?
    Cheers,
    Duncan.

    Only after you've spent 4 times what the factory part would have cost you.

    Well, as it turns out, a whopping great $6.50. A lot for a 10cm hose but
    nothing to save all that mucking around.
    In my defense when I needed it the motorbike shop was closed and didn't have
    them in stock while the Clark Rubber / Autobarn weren't that far away. The
    braided hose cost $1.30 or so and it's done the job so far, it's just a bit
    loose.
