Re-assembly questions
Correction to my previous post. The interference area was next to carb 3 not carb 4.

Big thanks to bs175dths...your suggestion to use the "proper" size line was right on target. The stock fuel hose is 5.3 mm, which is about 3.2/16 of an inch. Went down to the local Bumper-to-Bumper today and picked up 2 ft of 3/16" fuel line to use from the T-fitting to the carbs. The 3/16 is much more flexible than the 1/4. Since I went down a size, I could use the Honda wire clamps.

Still have a little interference problem but not nearly as pronounced as with the 1/4 line. To protect it, I used some of the hose guard that was on the bike before the cleaning started. I needed to split it length-wise so I could wrap it around the installed hose (see attached). Thanks for the suggestion!

- Pete
