S4Rs

Whats the point of a velocity stack with the flare cut off? wouldnt that kill the point?

They are now just pod adapters and nothing more.   popcorn

I'm not sure if the tank is valved or not, they don't leak when the lines are unhooked, but I think that's because of the fuel pump on the delivery side and the pressure regulator on the return side.
I think if either of those fittings broke it would be ugly.

Yup - ugly all over the rear header.  You can see the fuel must be leaking some in that picture of my tank fittings.  The 'out' = high pressure side I guess.  It looks like a little fuel has been getting past the seal and staining the inside of the fitting.

Phase 1 complete.  The bike ran very rich with the stepper motor removed.  I hooked up the Technoresearch kit and trimmed back the idle mixture quite a bit.  It idled at just about the same RPM once it was warmed up.  I found this perfect fuel pump on ebay - I got a deal on it because it is broken - but it is broken in just the right way to save me some work lol.  I'll see if there is enough metal to tap for metal quick disconnects and/or try and find a welder to see if it can be welded without destroying the rest of the flange.

Had the fuel pump replaced under warranty for the same reason
