Barricade - Yamaha FZ-16 (2009) - Midnight Black

As far as I remember, the last time I swapped the hose, I measured the stock one at 31.5 inches (80cm). I’m guessing the Pulsar hose is 75cm, which is why it’s a tight fit.
So far, the 85cm hose is only available from RCB, but unfortunately, that doesn’t come with rubber grommets. I had a very bad experience buying from Amazon, one seller shipped the wrong size, and the other hasn't shipped yet. Given this, I’m now thinking of buying and importing from AliExpress instead.

Check in local accessory shops too. I have seen many in Cochin and way cheaper than Amazon, around ₹450 (I got from Amazon for ₹599 then). Same generic hoses. Not sure about length. AliExpress won't deliver to India nowadays. Rarely some seller do, but at high shipping rates and will definitely get caught by customs, who'd slap another 60-70% as duty. Not worth unless shipping to some other country and bringing in person by some acquaintance.

Already tried in Karol Bagh, and none of the shops there have the right length. The only exception is Moto Planet, which has RCB hoses for ₹2,399, but those come without rubber grommets.
Regarding the import, the only option I have is to order them to my client’s address, and he’ll ship them to me. But since the shipping cost is quite high (3k via Aramex), I’ll have to order 5-6 hoses to bring down the average cost.
