Yeah search ebay for 'busa filters, you can get copies for about £20-25. They fit 14s fine, the only difference is they have two brass inserts in the top where the 'busa fuel level sensor fits. Much better value that £170+ from Suzuki for a genuine 14 one.

While you're in there, wash out the teabag too. Always put a smear of rubber grease on the big O-ring where the filter fits to the metal pipe too, I managed to split a filter once because that O-ring jammed pushing it back together. Oh & tie a bit of stainless wire or a cable tie around the filter to hold the white clip that fits the pressure relief valve as they've been occasionally known to fall off.

I can't take credit for the info. Someone else found it first, maybe on a FB group.

I just did a quick ebay search.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285794895127?_nkw=suzuki+busa+fuel+filter&itmmeta=01J6C0DK357W3T71NFJV94Y5PT&hash=item428ab40517:g:drIAAOSwaS5mC-Bz&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKnzXCREhFjiTIiActGkFvGfqPo2s3A3bRia%2FhjiiVnVluBs9n83rxlfRSbAVt%2FNuS0ZS88zz22R2YOahZnuV8BM%2FDtQijVipM%2FyoQH2yMenyBKeRljZ9O7E%2FrPBPnQz3VZ%2F0QNjKFFMRaaWHOSJsNVxRUdo%2FUjExHr1F774wvYL5I77OJyDe%2Bd7%2FxzvDTqIh4LJhz%2BS8zTyDdd31eEzeiV8scN0Rh19SWEL%2FsqUzpWRd4xstvtzImIH5xTKPhUNcXVbifkCA%2BYDzK4Rkr4SE9cVqrx85YLzdhbs3pqAsiIuWw%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABFBM1rG2gLNk

I need to go somewhere I've not been but won't know until I get there!

Cheers, well I eventually too the plunge and did the external fuel filter mod. The first ride out I noticed a more lively feeling engine and better, more smooth running through out the rev range. But, it still stuttered occasionally, so I put in a fuel additive to clean th engine liqui moly, after about half the tank of shell v lower and this went through I stopped getting stuttering. I've topped up with BP ultimate and so far so good ok the last ride yesterday. I'll keep everyone posted but (hopefully) I may have cracked it. I still have a new air filter and spark plugs to fit, but I'm trying to do one thing at a time to get a feel what if any difference each change makes. If it happens anymore I'm tempted to get the Injectors ultrasonic cleaned, has anyone tried this? Was there any improvement ?
What a MACHIIIINE
