Going to take the second fuel fuel filter out and make it a straight down shot to the carbs. I seen all kinds of posts where everybody is tearing their carbs apart. And as for the screen inside the tank I replaced my petcock just before starting to ride it last summer. Even had an issue with the supplier because they jammed it into a small box and bent the petcock filter. They eventually got pissed and sent me one that did not fit my bike but had a filter. Guess they didn't like the review and had to show Ebay that they made good on it. Right now the line shoots out to the right and then curls back in and down. I'm taking it that as it turns back around just before it goes down that's where I'm getting my cavitation. I made it a long bend trying to avoid restriction
