I need to replace the oil level tank tubing as it’s stained hard to see. What’s the best type of tubing and clamps? Just fuel line?
Yamaha wants $111.56. Lol

Yes, just 1/4" urethane fuel line hose. Do not use vinyl! Vinyl will be hard as a rock on cold mornings and would be prone to cracking or breaking.
No pressure (we'll, maybe 1/2 to 1 psi) in that hose so any good metal clamp is fine, either spring loaded or screw type.

I'm in the same boat. Wish they would have just had a sight glass like the chaincase.I need to replace the oil level tank tubing as it’s stained hard to see. What’s the best type of tubing and clamps? Just fuel line?

Cost too much to put a sight glass and do it right so they use a cheap #*$&@ plastic tube. Just like it cost to much to put a drain plug in the chaincase with a filler cap on top

GTP Performance in Quebec sells a pre cut hose with clamps for $15. likely still best to source yourself locally
