Hi Keith
This is where I got mine from. Fitted nicely onto my Z1B (original) fuel tap.

Good find ! i have just measured my spare tap, the two copper tubes are 7 mm o.d ,so i think they would fit ? just a bit dear £6 ?
That is on a gpz11 uni-trak ,but i think they are all the same for the big fours ?correct me if i am wrong ?

Cant vouch for anything else but the Z1R tap, But in the past Ive rolled some fine brass gauze into a tube and inserted it into the old carrier with good effect

put the filter on the tap inside the fuel tank ,and it fitted nice and tight ,so now i have got rid of the in-line fuel filter ,which means now i have a better flow to the carbs .
So the above filters are decent and fit good .
