    oil hose

    I have a 1980 xs11 special and the oil hose keeps cracking, guessing due to age. I have had this bike about a year, so I don't know when they were last replaced.

    What size/kind/length of hose do I need to repace it with? I'm looking at the lower hose going to the oil cooler.

    Upper hose specs would also be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    If you have an Auto Zone near check them out. Take the old hose with you and they probably have what you need. If not try O'reily's or Napa.

        By the way, I would buy enough hose to replace all of them. You might want to check the clamps too and replace them as well.
