Hi
    I want to replace the oil cooler rubber lines from my laverda 1000. Does anyone where I could obtain some in the uk?

        Thanks Russ.

As you can see in the images, (not mine incidentally, but I saved them ages ago so I can do mine) they simply unscrew, so you can get the original end plated to your whim.

Richard Slater can supply the original 'push on' rubber lines if that's what you're after (will work with the later screw in fittings) - not sure if you are after the complete assembly or not.  I suspect he can provide that if required, but replating what you've got works well.  Alternatively Wolfgang can supply.
 
I have found that 3/8" ID Gates oil and fuel hose fits nicely to replace the originals.  If the rubber is ok, the oil lines can be zinc plated as an assembly, no need to take it all apart, but more important, no chance of damaging the plating upon re-assembly.
