Hi Angel,

Definitely want an in-line fuel filter. When I rebuilt my H3, I used 3/8 inch hose, but had to use hose clamps to seal it. I switched to 1/4 inch and was able to get away from the hose clamps and it ran fine.

I'm afraid I'm not an expert on fuel line material types. Mine's a bluish opaque line that I get from my mechanic. Hopefully someone else can help you on that.

As long as you have verified that the tank filter is indeed in good shape then I would say no you would not need an inline filter. These bikes are old and the tank filters are either ripped or taken off by a previous owner so when you get the bike you really do not know. If unknown then run an inline filter. I run 3/8 black fuel line hose.
