I've set up a few on other bikes as well as my own. No issues. All from Cambridge.

I've had issues in the past where the link connector was worn and the tap touched the bridge piece before reserve was fully opened. This resulted in a restricted flow of fuel through the tap.......not too big an issue when just tootling about, but when coming back from Blackpool down the motorway it was a bit of a pain........especially when I couldn't work out why I had fuel starvation issues above 45mph.

This isn't really an issue with rear entry taps in particular, but could manifest with any tap.

Yes.....a particular Yorkshire dealer is selling a lot of these (Not the CamLam ones) and they are utter shite. They flow f@@k all.

Contact AF, MB, CamLam, or other reputable dealers to get decent kit.
