I am putting my 01 back together after rebuilding the motor, and just found that I am missing the clip that holds the fuel line onto the tank. BikeBandit does not show this as a seperate piece. Does anyone know a source for these clips or compatibility to other years?

Tried doing a search with not much luck.

A lot of that happens with bike stuff.

The clutch reservoir is not available for the K7 and K8, but I have been informed the Honda one fits. Fuel vent seal for the fuel cap is not available, but I think the Kawasaki one will work. Just when you think a part is not made available another manufacturer has it.

Figures. I don't have an OReilly anywhere close. Let me see if I can cross reference that over to Advanced Auto or something....

Thanks for showing that they are available elsewhere!

Update on the clips from Advanced Auto.

They don't work. They end up letting the line come loose under pressure form the fuel pump.

I ended up pulling one from my 07 Gix track bike and ordering some from the local dealer instead.

It was not bad advice. I got the clips they had there and it appeared they would work. The size is correct and they lock the line in just fine, but are too flimsy to hold under ptressure. I tried a number of times to lock it in and ensure it would stay. The last time resulted in my leg getting saturated with 93 octane! At that point, I called it quits and pulled one off my 07 Gix 1000 track bike and called the dealer and ordered some, which are listed as seperate for the 07.

Just wanted you guys to know that the particular clips I got, which were made by Dorman, do not work.
