Yeah, I'd like one of those too... did you ever find one or end up making your own? Mine is a mess and would
like to replace it. There's one on eBay now but it's going for $80 USD!! :shock:

I sealed the oil line with clear liquid electrical tape & used stat-o-seal washers.

Turned out that my big problem was the oil pump top oil seal.

Bloop2 sells oil pump rebuild kits on eBay.

I used the oil seals & o-rings that are in the kit with the exception of the top oil seal.
The PO had replaced that oil seal with the wrong one, which then spun on the shaft & damaged the mounting surface.
So I had to measure the actual diameters on my pump & select a seal that would work.

But this is what I've got

How many hose clamps does it take to fix a leak and yet not actually take
care of the big problem? :wink:

Actually the banjo on the right is not original to this system. That mess just after
the hose clamps was screwed directly into the banjo that is just hanging out on the
oil petcock right now. It's not pretty but I suppose it will work. I'd rather have pretty
and little chance of 2 stroke oil getting all over my nice clean engine!

By the way, don't those guys who strip bikes out in the midwest know to detach the oil lines rather than cutting them? They seem to last pretty well and you just can't get them! With all the oil tanks all over eBay right now I'd
rather see a bunch of oil supply lines instead! Instead of seats I'd like to see the bushings, spacers and bolts. It's the little things man...
