Hi,
Anyone know if the standard 500LC fuel filter is swappable with one from a 350LC, guy at work has a 500LC and the white plastic filter thingy inside the tank, that also gives reserve ability, has fallen apart, I have a spare 350LC one to donate to him if it is compatible..
TIA
Robin

I dont think so, the 500 fuel outlet is far bigger mate and I cant see the spigots that hold the mesh filter being in the same location as the 350s, with the 500 having its fuel tap mounted remotely from the fuel outlet, on the air box.

The same style of filter is fitted to the outlet in the center of the tank underside, but as Copper says its bigger.
Tell you mate to look at the 500 forum, guys there spec the correct TZR fuel tap to be able to shut off the fuel at the tank that goes in the outlet's place. much easier to work with.

From the 500 forum advise I purchased from Fowlers of Bristol a 3MA-24510-00 Fuel c**k assembly 2. Price £65.20 last year. I cannot confirm it does actually fit as it is sat on shelf as a spare. Apparently it fits according to advise on forum and shuts fuel off completely as it is not a vacuum tap?

It does fit Rich, fitted one to my bike and another mid lockdown, as did half the 500 forum I think! the lever needs trimming down 5-6mm or it fouls the heatshield under the tank when the tank is lowered..Not as good as a freebie of course if all you need is the mesh..  |

I also fitted the TZR fuel tap to both my 500s. Just makes taking it apart easy. I took a tank off today. Going out for paint.
