Just finished the oil filter relocation job used stainless hoses what a pain just wondering what everybody else used and to what success
Following this as it is a future upgrade for me.
On mine, just used black rubber oil line. She's no show trike. Was really worth the time and money spent, bought from DK Customs.

That's what I was considering, especially since it's not extra. Lol, and mine isn't a show bike either. I bought it to ride and it looks like it right now. :xzqxz:

Most of the oil hose hides underneath anyways.
I just order the relocation kit (should arrive tomorrow) and I went with the rubber hose.
I've used the black fiber braided hose...it is a PITA, gotta follow the instructions...I heat up the hose in hot water and also use some oil to get it to slip on the barbs a bit easier.
The installation video below shows my most recent installation with the included rubber hose.

Got my kit yesterday. Fast service and shipping. I started installing yesterday afternoon and finished up this morning. If you have the floorboard extenders, they give a nice spot to start the lines under the trike. I used electrical wire sheathing to protect my lines running along the frame. I also doubled up my tie wraps just to make them more secure for me. If you don't have the floorboard extensions, this is a good time to get them. You're already down on the floor.
