R6 fuel tap on a B12

[Mark]

Came across a passing comment about a B6 race bike with a fuel tap from an R6 to incease flow and have a lower profile tap

Wondered if any of you guys had done this? Thinking better flow, low profile, better price than a pingle. Also the R6 is gravity fed.

Thoughts?

are you using a return line to the tank ? what turbo set up do you have ?

Its a blow through. Yes i have a fuel pump to regulator which includes a return line to the tank.

I’ve used an early fazer 600 tap, with the bandit faceplate and twist knob on, not with turbo tho, doesn’t have reserve and is gravity feed, used it on a dot head bandit conversion I did,

Cheers for the input.

Pretty similar to running the B12 tap on  just prime then really. I have read they are faster flowing than the B12's though, and lower profile.

Maybe not worth messing with as an upgrade. But i dont have ant tap atm so need to buy one either way. Will give it a go!

They are definitely lower profile, I’ll see if I can find a pic
