Title: Fuel filter placement
Post by: 007brendan on August 31, 2013, 03:09:28 PM
Who has a fuel filter and what line did you put it on?  I'm guessing the line between the frame petcock and carbs.

I had one and yes between the peacock and carbs. Be aware that if your bike runs like shaZam! you'll have to scrap the filter and rely on your in tank one. Alot of people say that that's all you'll need so see how you go

So you're saying a fuel filter is a bad idea?

Why do you want one?
There is a filter screen in the tank....

Buy fuel from places with continuous turnover.
