dunno
I am a yamaha tech and if needed I look it up and install the correct part.
that little line between the VST and the medium pressure inline filter is a kit,comes with 2 clips and a 2" section of line for about 70 bucks.
whatever you use it must have a burst pressure rated at 300 PSI and the correct clips must be used t retain it.
50 PSI fuel leaks can be nasty.

ok it might as well be 7000$ for the line. is there an alternative. i know it needs to be strong stuff for fuel injection at 50 psi line with a 300 psi burst. Must be something out there besides just yamaha dealer costs. thank you for the pressure info though. i'll be careful and watch the clamps as well.

6 X 70$ PER 2" = 420$ PER FOOT OF HOSE

nuts aint it.
but with todays liability issues and I am a yamaha master tech working for a yamaha dealer its not worth it to me to go aftermarket.
if ANYTHING happens and I cant cover my arse guess who pays?
customer can do anything they wish once its off my lot.
