Using the stock petcock and some tubing the choke works fine.
all well and good,,,, if it were red , white or black,,, i would have one.
Green wont make it on my red bike..
Also, they could very easily redo the current mold to form to the 09 and up seat.

The device between the tank and side cover is a Mikuni snowmobile fuel pump. It is attached to the original petcock mount.



Inside the tank there are two weighted fuel inlet tubes that lie at the very bottom of each of the wings.


I modified the fuel enrichment shaft. It's now flexible and a bit longer.

If you read this whole thread it will give you some ideas.

I have put many miles on this set up and it has worked well. Fishing the fuel lines and making the fitting takes a bit of time but I think it was worth it.

Is it my imagination or is the Acerbis Green now a much better match to the Kawasaki Green than it used to be?
