    As it says in the title what is the diameter of my fuel pipe from the tank to my carb discovered a split it mine when I got to work. I'm guessing its 5mm but don't want to order the wrong size any help is great.

    Thanks Marsh. Don't suppose you know a quick fix until the new one arrives do you?

    On the 125 typhoons there should be an overflow pipe that run's down the l/h side of the frame down to the floorboard, you could cut a length off that to use!

    No, just the panel under the front of seat, where you check spark plug, the pipe should be on the left, tucked behind the side panel.

    Is it common for them to leak at the breather pipe at the bottom of the carb. As looks like mine is

    Mine sometimes leak's especially when I've filled up when warm, it could be the float needle leaking, you can buy a needle set for the Mikuni carb.
