Oh so you have the aftermarket inline filter now and what to take that off and go back with the stock t-filter?
What is it that you dont like about it?

That is correct, but I no longer have the stock t-filter. Which is why Im trying to find where to get a new one.
Since ive gotten rid of the t-filter my floats have stuck twice on me, before I removed it they never once did. probally the inline filter that I used, but I figure ill go back to what I know works.

well if bikebandit.com dont have it then I have no clue. You might wanna check out your petcock. That has a small screen like filter on it just like the t filter does, maybe you have a small hole in that allowing bigger stuff through. Ive had my floats stick on me twice, but about a year or so after I took the t-filter out. Might wanna check your air filters too, and maybe give them a cleaning

Already had pulled the petcock out and cleaned it all out. I would think anything bigger though would still get caught in the inline filter though. Ill give the airfilters a looking even though im not sure how that would effect the fuel flow into the bowl.

I tried several automotive fuel filters on my bike and they don't work on a gravity fed system. I picked up a Versa motorcycle filter at a local shop, about $4 and it flows properly.

Matt, I was poking around Bike Bandit today and under the '03 Thunderbird Sport/CARBURETORS section they show the Keihen t-filter. Item # 13 if you are still looking.
