How much in tank hose ?

Post by BruceinLA »

I want to have everything ready, I ordered a fuel filter, clamps, strainer, access hole "O" rings for my R1150R.

How much fuel line is in the tanks between the pump and filter, bmw parts shows two hoses, one straight, one curved.. but I need length to
order the correct gates in tank hose.....

Thanks!

It's been many years since I changed out a filter. It was on a 2003 R (which I later moved the filter outside the tank) but I bought a couple feet of hose and just cut it to match what I took out. It wasn't difficult at all. Biggest problem was shoehorning it all back in the tank and getting all the small bolts started with the new O-ring in place. Take your time.
