WANTED, 5 mm coolant pipe for FZ600
« on: 26 April 2018, 10:52:29 pm »
Hi, does anyone have, or know where I can get the 5 mm coolant pipe that runs from the Thermostat housing to the carburettors on a 2003 FZS600 please. It's about 7 inch long, it's not available from Fowlers. Failing that does anyone know where I can get a length of 5 mm (internal diameter coolant pipe, finding 6 mmm is easy but no one seems to stock 5 mm. Best regards... Cliff Briggs.

Wouldn't 5mm reinforced flexible fuel line do it? Just a thought

That's a good shout, and probably 50 times cheaper as well for what you get.
