Sheedawg28 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Damn! Just took the stock fuel valve off and saw all the $hit built up now I'm considering running individual filters. Anyone running them on the pingel set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennett131 Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 The stock pet cock probably filters fuel better than the screen that comes on the dual pingel valves. That being said, in line filters will surely slow the flow of fuel. I don't run any filters. All of my fuel comes directly out of a vp can into a clean gas can. I don't get much if any dirt. If you're running pump fuel and want to filter the fuel I'd put one on each line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawa110 Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I filter the fuel as transfer from my red can to the tank with the filter from the bung hole on the generator gas tank. Drop it in the shee bung hole, pour gas, remove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have considered running pure race fuel bit I ride too much to want to be spending 60-70 every two weeks or less for a 5 gallon jug otherwise I'd be all for it. Yea they definitely will and I'm afraid they would cause the small air bubbles I was complaining about but maybe after some people trying it since it's more direct and now being gravity fed individually it wouldn't be as big of a problem. There was a lot of sand in there which was where the first owner had just ridden the bike a number of times and I've only been out there once with this bike so I'm also thinking it was all previously in there.

I have a screen in my gas tanks line but that would only cover bigger random black chunks you'll sometimes find from older deteriorated gas station lines. This one your talking about probably doesn't filter to the micron levels like the in line fuel filters though I'd assume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheedawg28 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Got her a little protection for the swinger. Ocotillo (rockOcotillo) can be pretty rough on the bikes. Edited March 5, 2016 by Sheedawg28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheedawg28 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Finally got the engine some protection. We'll see how this plastic skid plate holds up compared to the aluminum ones. Definitely a lot lighter that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheedawg28 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Let us know how that skid plate holds up. I've thinking about trying one. I shall after a few track days and a bit of trail riding. If I forget just ask but I'll be checking it when I wash her down. It's .25" thick in case any of you are wondering also.

Sheedawg28 Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Had to cut a piece off the skid plate to make it fit. Apparently these weren't designed for shortened swingarms as they move the shock link just a tad further down. Also got rid of the shiny business it had going on with some black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
