    There is absolutely nothing wrong with using those whatsoever, and that is an xlnt alternative to the stupidly overpriced Honda lines that only cost around 20 cents to make . . Home Depot and True Value all sell the same line and it will work just fine . . It's certainly not something you would want to use for fuel line though, however, since they are drain and vent lines, and gas may never even go thru them, and they are easily visible and easily replaceable, all you have to do is take a quick look at them periodically and spend another 27 cents a foot for new ones if they ever go bad . . At that rate, it might take you around 287 years before you have spent anywhere close to $25.00 on them.

    People should keep in mind that it is just a Honda and not a Ferrari....or a TECATE...The Most Powerful 3 Wheeler In The World! . . God I love sayin that.


    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

    Vinyl hardens within days. You want polyurethane like this:

    Interesting to see some of the people that won't tolerate anyone questioning their buddies choices sitting here mocking somebody for offering an affordable option for clear line.

    Very interesting.

    Boy traffic sure is slow around here. Wonder why.

    Could possibly be because people are sick of hearing about how complicated rear shocks and how fast tiny motors are.

    I have a suspicion that somebody here with all this info doesn't even own a 3 wheeler.

    Let's see where that takes us, shall we.

    OOHH I see a moderator checking in already!! FUN FUN!!

    I see you too J, bring it. I'll be all over your thread like white on rice on a paperplate in a snowstorm.


    DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU, oh holy ones.

    P.S. See you lookin too Mr. C!! Long time no see, ol buddy!!

    Any new quotes oldskool? That ones getting pretty wore out bud.

    Hey look, traffics going up already! Imagine that, more than one single way of thinking and one tiny clique of internet gurus stroking each others ego's day after day after day and telling everyone how to do stuff!

    Opposing opinions, here on 3WW? OH NO THE SKY IS FALLING AHHHHHHHHHH

    LOL! How's it going DOHC? Long time no see. Funny what you said there, I was thinking exactlyt the same thing when I saw Barnett post. I wonder if he'll ever get around to owning a trike?

    Here's some gibberish on fuel line if anyone wants to look.http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2...hould-not-use/

    My personal experience is that it turns harder than a goats dick after a while. From what I've read it's impervious to solvents, but exposure to UV rays hardens it.

    Good to see you back.

    1. Knew damn well someone would mention barnett.

    2. Was pretty sure it might be you.

    3. Did not care too much about that, obviously.

    I own trikes

    Glad to be here! Merry Christmas Nico.

    Let's leave poor Barnett alone. He builds award winning cars. Maybe he uses homedepot tubing on them that's why he never has pics of his gold star builds.

    Hey whoa.

    I feel like I've missed a good opportunity here. Let's rewind the tape...

    A while? We are going to need some hard evidence on how long both of these things take to happen.

    The tube seems to need about a month from what I've seen on my bikes, more so when used as vent line than fuel line, but we'd need Barnett to calculate the angle of the sun, daily UV index, sun flare burst, fuel octane etc., to be sure how long it would take in the OP's riding area.

    As far as the goat goes Barnett may have already done that research, but if someone else want to take a shot at it I have no objections.
