Re: [ST] Metal Fuel Fittings

["Eric Mann" <eric91z@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would be in for a group buy on the fittings.  I have my entire side panel
replaced with about 1100 miles on the bike when it developed a gas leak.
They pulled a panel off another ST they had, checked with Triumph to see if
it had the right fittings, then installed it on my bike.  That way they
didn't have undo any fittings.  And the fittings were over a month back
ordered from Triumph at the time.

Either way, I would be up for having a set of the metal ones around for when
the plastic ones let go.
