Thread: Hose clamp diameter for oil filter

2 7/8 dia on the suzuki

K&N KN204 which fits the RC and CBR1000RR (I think the 600RR also) is a small amount larger than 2.5" so I am guessing 64mm Oh and the K&N has a nut on the end that is drilled for safety wire

Thanks!

You must use a carbon fiber or unobtanium clamp on the 1098. If you get caught at tech with a mundane, run of the mill hose clamp from Home Depot, you'll lose your linguine privileges for sure.

I thought they went over this stuff when you picked up the bike...
