There is a thread on here about modding the fuel filter. It was a pretty in depth write up by ChrisJP. Shows you what 2 do step by step with pics. I did it and it worked like a charm. You do have 2 remove the fuel pump assembly etc. but I was upgrading my fuel system (injectors, pump, rail, etc.) so i did that too while I had the chance.
For the price you'd pay 4 extensions I'd keep an eye out on here and other busa forums for a quality used swingarm. You could get it powdercoated along with your footpegs. You may or may not like the stretch and could always swap back your stock arm if you don't like it or when U go 2 sell it. Can't do that once you hack it up.....
I'd see what they are gonna charge you to repair your radiator vs the cost of just buying a used 1 off a forum or ebay. Sometimes shops try 2 take you 2 the cleaners on repairs like that cause they assume you are desperate and have no other option but them. When in reality it may be cheaper and less of a hassle 2 just replace the whole thing all 2gether
The fuel filters seem like at headache. I will do that mod if it ever gives me any problems
The guy I deal with is trustworthy, so hopefully the radiator will work out. He says its normally 25-50 bucks to fix.
