Anyone got any ideas for fuel filters for a Honda Shadow? Pros or cons are welcomed. I know that Honda Shadows has a filter in the tank on the pet cock for fuel flow, then I heard they would restrict the flow of fuel to the carb. Ideas. suggestions?

I don't know that it will restrict the flow that much to make a difference in a street bike. My Shovelhead has a filter in the tank @ the petcock and i also run and inline clear filter..have no problem getting gas to the S&S super carb.

Crispy is right. The shadow has a fuel pump. I think it has an in line filter by the swingarm. We bought a glass in line filter that could be taken apart and cleaned if needed. Since it has a fuel pump you won't have any problems with flow.
