Tygon2375 Clear Brake Fluid Reservoir Hose 5/16" 8mm ID 1 Foot

Higher price than others but works well for brake fluid

Works As Advertised

Deleted the rear pegs and reservoir on my MT09. It has been a few months with no leaks. Good stuff.

Hose kinks easily so watch it.

Rebuilding a motorcycle and needed a new low pressure line for the reservoir to master cylinder. The hose kinks like crazy unlike traditional hoses.

I tried to use this to connect ZX 14 brake and clutch master cylinders to aftermarket reservoirs. It failed miserably. I hooked up the brake with little difficulty, but the clutch portion kinked and leaked air. After a couple of days, I tried again using the leftover portion of the hose. This time, I was very careful with the position of the reservoir, cylinder inlet, and length of hose. As I was tightening up the hose clamps, I noticed that all the brake fluid had leaked out of the brake reservoir hose. I quit. It's possible that the 1/4 inch hose might have provided a better seal, but I don't care. I'm done. I got some DOT 3, 4, 5 fluid compatible hose from Brake Hoses Unlimited instead, and it works perfectly.

I have a aftermarket master cylinder on my 2006 CBR1000RR. The reservoir is also not in the stock location. I tried a couple of different clear hoses and all of them were degraded by the brake fluid. Some wept fluid out of them, others turned milky. This stuff works perfectly. It’s obviously not for brake line pressure but for a hose from your reservoir to your master cylinder it is perfect.

Hard to love a hose, but it is of excellent quality and what I expected for its intended use.
