  16. so now you have totally lost me you ask will a fuel filter restrict fuel (you say you know it will when its got crap in it) and you want to know is it worth fitting one but if 1/ you fit one it stops the said crap getting onto the carb and blocking jets etc! 2/ clean it regularly and it "wont" bung up! with said crap. so either you fit one clean it and have no probs, don't fit one and get crap in carb which is harder to clean out etc.3/ dont put the crap in your tank! so by my reckoning you already know the merits?? hmm you were saying
  17. spoke to an East mids official ans its our region and once you become an intermediate you can not drop down, but club permitting you can ride any route! once you are over 40 you can then do that! reason for doing it is to stop an inter riding as over 40 for 2 years dropping to novice and then cleaning up!
  18. Plonker of the week award goes too.................. They WILL restrict the flow when clogged Have another read of my first post and you will see that the reason for fitting one in the first place is to avoid cr*p in the carb. [/qoute] no deff not me as i would not be daft enough to ask it the filter would block up when i got crap in it! , AS a mechanic of 20 years i would know its better to have the crap trapped in a filter then going into the carb/jets/engine and causing damage/running concerns. Then again im not daft enough to get the crap in the tank to start with!!! As has been stated you either replace them regulary or clean them, think of a air filter, that would bung up with crap if you did not clean it so do you take yours out and leave it out in fear of it restricting air?
  19. Spoke to someone on Sunday who said that if you had been on the intermediate rating or are now you no long go back down to novice and you are expected to ride the hard/expert rule! Any more info or comments?
  20. Plonker of the week award goes too........................... what the hell do you think a fuel filter is for? and where do you think the crap would end up if you had not got it fitted? oh maybe block a jet and stop the engine, never mind eh!
  21. ROTFPIMP Why then put fork protectors on etc????? so your bike it TOTAL stock eh?
