    "Crossover tube"?

    The only crossover that I know of is in the exhaust between #2 and #3, and THAT had better not be plastic.




    And, ... Bike BANDIT is far from the ultimate source for what's available.
    They are also far from the most-affordable.

      EZ. 1100EZ (like mine)?

      I'm guessing you're talking about a frame piece. Correct?

      Check that. "it feels just like a plastic line"

      Can't be the frame, so what is it? Pics and engine size, please.

                You are better off to not use any air at all. Get some progressive shocks, and set the oil level as per the manual. Even better get emulators and new springs and forget about the air.

                  Hard to get a straight answer on these forums sometimes. I figured since you posted in Suspension and Brakes, was not exhaust related. And how shocks and springs and emulators answer your question I have no idea. Years ago, I purchased the hose, (for 'originality') from a local Suzuki dealer. Might be obsolete.

                  No harm in asking the seller what he would take for the hose only

                          Go to your local NAPA (if you have one) and get a small section of plastic air hose and a couple of new ferrels for the ends.

                            Perhaps the OP should have posted under "restorations"? The rest of us would have figured out quicker what you already seem to know all about.
