Title: battery vent tube
Post by Doug B on 12/04/12 at 09:47:09

Does anyone know the size(inside diameter) of this hose ? If I can get a response in the next half hour I would be appreciative. Otherwise, I'll just get 2 or 3 different sizes off of the bulk spools at my nearest auto parts store(instead of just one).

I think a vent tube is a vent tube, why not measure the vent nipple on the battery that they have in the store. Of course, I can always find a use for a piece of hose, especiall when I don't have any.

My guess would be that he would measure the nipple if he were near the bike......but he is probably at work and going to pick one up on the way home.

That was why I suggested he measure the battery they have IN THE STORE. :)

Sometimes the slight difference in what comes with a product and buying replacements makes for a difficult install. Hot water to soften plastic and dishwashing liquid (where advisable) help a lot.
