Does anybody know if there are any inline gas filters that have two inlets and two outlets. I have a number of Hondas that have two openings on the tank and two places on the carb. Room is tight and I would like to have only one filter.

If anyone had them I would have thought it would be Beatrice Cycle, but I did not see any there:

I did find this one, but at $40 and probably too big for your engine sizes (see the bottom of this page):

I found some also but they are about $40.00 or more. There is a company called Pingel, that I found them at. Guess I will just have to keep my tanks clean.

I just use 2 lawnmower filters and cut the fuel lines different lengths so they are staggered. Although, if the rest of your tanks look anything like your Big Red, I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Yep thats what i do to, a couple inline fuel filters and stagger them in the lines, the a couple zip ties to keep them neat and i have never had a problem. I have the billet aluminum lifetime filters on my 200ES, they can be taken apart and cleaned then put back together. This makes a great setup because if you ever have a fuel issue you can just turn off the petcock and tear the filters apart without a lot of fuel spill, and it can be done anywhere anytime.

I have some of the plastic inline filters on my other trike, ATC90, but that one never goes far from home. The tanks are clean, but i like to use the filters as insurance, its a lot easier to clean/replace a filter than it is to tear down a carb because some dirt or bad fuel got in the tank.

I like the filters with a 90 degree inlet/outlet - especially on the 70s.
