    They weren't designed with one, I don't use one but I know others have found something to work.

        The stock pre petcock did have a screen on it... It's not available seperatly that I'm aware of... it was glued on from the factory.

          i was actually about to post that same picture.... any ideas on what to do? mine is missing.


          good recommendations on inline fuel filters?


          also how do you hook up the 2 brass fuel fittings?

          only reason i ask is because when i got my bike only one was hooked up, the one facing the rear. the vacuum was not hooked up to it.

            Well, depends on the bike you have. (more info please... )

            For my bike, there is a fuel linie for each of the brass fuel ports on the petcock, that connect to the carbs, bottom side... between sets 1-2 and 3-4.

            I think the 88-89 600s might have only one?

                You should have a single fuel line setup then from the petcock (as that model only had one fuel outlet on the petcock).

                Looks like there was an inline fuel filter on those as well from the microfiche... That would work just as well I suppose for larger stuff. Just get a high flow filter if you do.. Not a paper filter.

                    Just that it's high flow, and not made of paper for the filter.

                    Sounds like someone put another petcock on the bike than the stock one. Yes, you can just plug off on side or the other... doesn't matter witch. Just make sure it doesn't leak.

                      dont go with a paper filter
                      go with a hi flo type... they wont restrict fuel flow at all, the down side is they also dont filter out fine debris like the paper ones do. But they work well enough to keep sand and crap out of the float valves
