Is
THIS the right sort of hose for attaching Throttle bodies to manifolds? it states fuel resistant but not to be immersed in
fuel permanently??

Should be fine, there is a fuel resistant inner layer (the black coloured layer), the blue stuff isn't fuel resistant so it can't live
inside a fuel tank like the stuff used on immersed pumps.
Make sure the throttle bodies are supported by brackets and not just by the hose - someone had them vibrate off and spray fuel all over the engine bay

Thanks Ian.
Yes I plan to support them via an airbox, and mimic as close as I can their setup on the bike, i.e. supported both ends. That method was quite
successfull with the bike carbs on my last project.
