You can buy the hose at most AutoPro, Repco etc.
I got 1 metre of 3/16th hose (or was it 5/16th? you better check. The core hole is about 7mm) for $5 and have more than 1/2 of it left over.
To fit the larger end to the fuel pump you simply heat the end of the hose up with hot water, apply a little lube and slide it on to the pump connector. Don't forget to put the retainer on the hose first.
At this stage I have only replaced the feeder hose and am relying on the correct placement of the return hose to do the job.
I should also mention that when I bought the bike a couple of years ago, it had a high flow fuel line fitted and I replaced it with an OEM one when I serviced the fuel pump.
I shouldn't have bothered but at the time I wasn't aware of the issue.
