I just bought the bike a few months ago. Took my first ride a couple of weeks ago and the injector bung came off. Today I put the new o-rings on and changed the filter.Bike has very low hours,but you are right,the filter was due. I always wondered why my fuel looked like a vortex when it was flowing...

I just changed my fuel filter that still had the OEM part number on it. The exit fitting on the filter had a twist, or spiral in it. Was this the way they were or did this one just get twisted somehow?

I ordered new o-rings from Dave last night.Plus the gas cap is cracked. He is sending a new one,also. My first attempt to install the cap was with the radiator pushed slightly out of the way. Now I have the front fender removed,which allows the radiator to be moved totally out of the way. I will be ...

Put everything back together and the o-ring leaked. I must have nicked it when installing.I did notice that this injector is loose in it's hole. It came out very easy. I am going to replace both o-rings.
Is the clip , the only thing that holds the injector in?

I managed to get the cap on. The retaining clip does not seem to seat as well as it should. I worked on the clip for 20 minutes trying to get it to seat. Looks like the slots in the clip are smaller than the rib on the cap.I know that is not possible,but that is what the symptom is.<br />Looks OK fo...

Well, I tried to push the cap over the o-ring. Either the o-ring has swelled or it was the wrong one to begin with. Or I am weaker than I think. I did not want to force it and break something else.Even with grease,it was going to take LOTS of force.

I am not sure how it popped off.My thinking was vibration. Maybe it was not seated from the previous owner. I will try and install tomorrow and will install zipties for piece of mind.
Otherwise the ride was a good one.

I tried to put it back on with the radiator loosened.No luck. Looks like removal of radiator is the best bet. I was thinking of wire ties to hold the clips on better. Am I looking for nicks in the O-ring?
