Re: Alternatives to rubber fuel hose?

Hmm, sure seems to me you can run rubber from the tank to frame rail (rear tank in my case), then the hard steel all the way to the pump. I know there is some movement in the frame and between the pump as it torques around. But I sure would have thought there is enough line length to absorb that much flex.

Totally agree though zero cause for rubber between pump and carb as that is all fixed points on the same plane. I am about to get rid of my braided stainless between carb and pump actually to make a stainless hardline. Just looks cleaner and can get good routing without the need for any clamps or tiedowns in odd places. Likely just put on on the head to keep it in place.
