I have an 06 and ordered this before I took my tank off and it won't work.  My pump just has one line out and a different fitting.  Luckily where its just one line it will be easy to move around I think.  Anyone in the USA need a set of these let me know, I have 4 males and 2 felmales.  Make me an offer!

Three cheers for Chilly!  I made myself a set of fuel-line extensions (based on Chilly's information) and it worked great.  Now I can easily check my throttle body synchronization any time I have the tank off.

Thanks again for the excellent write-up.

Yet another Yank on a British bike,

I was successful making my extensions using a United States supplier called McMaster Carr. I have been buying from these guys for years.

Link: http://www.mcmaster.com/

Search for "barbed acetal quick-dissconnect" and you'll get a list of different sizes.

I purchased the following:
(2) 5012K72 - Barbed plug w/o shut-off valve $1.17USD/ea
(2) 5012K68 - Barbed socket w/o shut-off valve $4.46USD/ea
Dont be cheap and buy the cheap plastic one like I did i.e. 5923K42
(1) 54605K34 Low-pressure fuel hose $1.36/ft (min order of 5ft)
(2) 5388K14 Worm drive hose clamp $5.70 (package of 10)

All for under $25USD without shipping. BTW I am not associated with McMaster Carr in anyway. I'm like you guys... need to fix my bike.

One more thing... the black ones are fastest.
