Had a chat with my local engineer today, he thinks there would be no problem using a flexible hose. He's going to remove mine and check what fittings would be needed to replace the stock items

The difficulty with using a flexible hose is that it's hard to control the route it takes accurately. There are lots of things it can rub against, some of them very hot.

I thought about the routing and heat from the exhaust, if you took the hose around the side of the block then down this would solve that issue, hose is cheap enough, fittings are the biggest expense. Hardest job for me would be making it look like it was meant to be there not just hanging off the bike.
