Quick question, hopefully quick answer!

Hi guys,

Purchased an S3 T309 recently and just goign through the process of changing all the bodywork to a black set.

I've removed the old tank, but didnt take any notice of which fuel hose went to which connection on the tap! I presume it doesnt matter? Both tubes seem the same length. I dont even know why there are 2 to be honest!

You are right, it doesn't matter. There are 2 because it probably needs the fuel flow at very high engine speeds and loads.

Thanks, all finished now Looks far better in black! Purchased a full set of bodywork off ebay for £200, so going to list mine, which should mean it hasnt cost me very much at all to change - certainly cheaper than a respray!

Before:



During:



After:



Very happy with the CF seat pod - £40 from ebay!



Just need to fit my bar end mirrors and give it a bit of a clean now

I like that blue, but you're right, the black is even better.
