Brake fluid hose ideas

Post by honda_gord »

Hi Gents;
I noticed a puddle under my AN600 this week. After closer inspection I
found the brake hoses that lead from the reservoir to the master
cylinder leaking. They are clear and hard as rock. Any ideas what could
be used to replace these? Thanks.

I had this problem,and i tried the newer band clamps and it still
leaked went back to orginal wire clamp this time i used a hair dryer or
heat gun to warm that hard plastic hose up.that time it fixed the
leak.try not to over heat or tighten
