Yea, they are located right outside of atlanta, like 25 miles from me. They got to my house 4 hours after placing the order. Wild.

Low perm = it will die in 2 years. Not low perm = it will die in a month ... maybe ... who knows.
Maybe they have a place where the sun dont shine where they keep it.

Cool.

Mine already shipped.

So Buddha what fuel line do you recommend if I may ask?

On nearly every bike other than a GS I use those braided rubber ones, the autoparts store standard variety. That is if the stock rubber ones are DOA.
On a GS I have run silicone lines for a couple years and have liked them, but they are delicate. Cant rough em like a tygon or a braided rubber line. They are also $$$. They have been on my MZ as well for nearly 18 months.
Cool.

So for the Tygon lines you recommend 1/4 in instead of 5/16? I'm in the market for some new fuel hoses.

definitely go for the 1/4". make sure you get f-4040a. McMaster-Carr is a good source, look in the above posts for the link. 5 feet should be enough, might wanna get 10 ft in case you cut wrong or something or to have as backup. I ended up not using hose clamps on my tank petcock or on the T connection on the carbs, but did use the clamps on the frame petcock. I am leak free
