Tried patching a fuel line on my '82 CB750 with electrical tape at 11 PM

I was out near Bakersfield last summer, bike started sputtering, and I found a crack in the hose right by the petcock. I wrapped it with electrical tape just to get home, figured it would last 10 miles at best, but it held for 3 days until I could get a proper replacement hose from the shop. Has anyone else had a ghetto fix turn out way better than it should have?

So wait... that electrical tape actually held for three days? What were you doing, just not touching it or did you wrap it weird?

Hey I feel you, three days of electrical tape holding is basically a miracle.
