We just put a new one on Magda's K100 last weekend.
I had some BMW line in my shed, 8mm inside diameter, 13mm outside diameter. If you are getting a non BMW one make sure its rated for fuel injection and you need at least 60psi because that's what's coming from the pump to the fuel pressure regulator.
I agree with Dai but for one small part. I also got the 13mm clips, but they are too small and fiddly to get them on and took them off and went one size up. You need 6 clips.
When you put the new lines in make them longer than the original ones by about 1 1/2" or so and you will be able to slide the tank back without disconnecting it to access the radiator coolant filler and you will also be able to lift it enough to access the relay box without disconnecting it. The pipe at the very front just behind the radiator should have an insulation around it.
I managed to do mine by just removing the bottom half of the air box. But there are 2 allen bolts inside bolting the bottom down to the top of the engine......WD40 them to get them out and liberal copper grease when you are putting them back.
While you are in there it's easier to get at the crankcase breather pipe and its small money so if in doubt swap it.
