I tried a in the tank sock...it fell to bits from euro ethanol fuel...they have higher ontent in even normal fuel than we do in uk...

Look at the pit bike alloy filters with a cleanable metal gauze filter screen...ghats what id use...but my tap is very close to my twin carbs unlike the dr650 ...boo hoo...

Dont like plasric cause it melts also becarefull of fuel vapourising when near a hot engine...

I got this for the KTM.
as suggested you may need to get some extra fuel line and run it around a bit.

I found also that these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261728616177? ... EBIDX%3AIT could be adapted to hold it in place.

Nice find Zimtim (thumbs) i'll be ordering a couple of those for Africa in May (thumbs)

Had a plastic/perspex one last time but it did start to leak half way through the trip so binned it

What about the golan super mini filters? Rally raid and moto rally services sell them. Not cheap at about £53 with clips and delivery but seem a decent bit of kit

Thought i'd best start buggering about with the Donk for Africa in May B) They are tough old boots these Donks , good job as i'd not opened her up since the RB runs :S

Cheer up Dad, I can't get it to work either. If the pics are on your PC, try loading them direct via the 'insert file' doobry when your writing a post.
