WWWJ again cut some blanks for me to mount my fuel pump and regulator and filter. Sincere tank is rubber mounted it seemed like a great place for these items. Regulator mounts via the return fitting. It’ll all plumb very cleanly.
Then since I had the fittings I could align them properly. Also to note: since I wanted the fittings on the bottom of the tank, I needed the return and vent line to be at the top of the tank I needed to pipe them up there inside:
Forks and the spots in the caliper are going to be same brown as the hubs.
Tank sides are going to be striped with 3" wide alternating stripes at the same angle as the cut for the oil tank. They will be alternating PEARL WHITE and RESCUE GREEN with a 1/4" BLACK stripe in between.
Overall I love the bike, your own personal twist on everything.
Nothing personal, but those AN fittings, pump, and regular just don’t “look” right; they don’t seem to match your/the bike’s style. They seem out of place in regards to the rest of the bike. This is my opinion, take it for what it’s worth.
I thought about putting the pump somewhere else but there really is no other good place for it. The ONLY other place it would MAYBE fit is under the transmission, but then it becomes a plumbing nightmare. I plan on painting the pump and brackets black. The regulator is nearly unnoticeable because it’s black. I don’t expect it to really “stick out” much once it’s all buttoned up. Also, the hose I am using isn’t stainless braid it’s black nylon braid. Making hardlines for the fuel lines is a distinct possibility as well. One last thing to keep in mind is that a lot of the pictures are take from an angle that the bike typically won’t be viewed at.
Tons of people run open primaries. If debris gets in there the worst it’d do is break or jump the belt. I can deal with that. As for a pant leg? Skinny jeans or tucked into boots. It’s not the safest, but neither is half the shit I do.
