Well for what its worth the K100 fuel pump is 60psi so the BMW 8/13mm pipe will work for you as will the clips.

Even if you don't use it for now its always worth knowing what parts are interchangeable. Blow a fuel pump in a K100 in Italy...Alfa/Fiat/Lancia use the exact same one.....blow one in France...well begob Peugeot use the exact same one.....blow one in Germany....ah now they make them there.

They will happily take 3-4 BAR in my experience, dunno what the pressure on the Katoom is though ;)
