I have a rather splendid K75RT in excellent condition but like its owner it is getting on in years. The fuel lines seem intact but they are pretty hard after aging for 18 years. I don't see any replacement interval in the Clymer or Haynes manual. How long are they really good for? Will they eventually rupture? Can I just leave them alone as long as they don't leak, then replace them when I'm doing something else to the bike, e.g. I replaced the internal hose when I did the fuel filter. (Ouch! $32.00 for a one foot piece of submersible fuel line!)
I take long rides across the U.S. And like to feel that everything is in A1 Condition.
