Ive had a look and the only thing that pops to mind is thats the actual pump aswell? I know the listing on your link is fuel filter but looking at other sites ie bike bandit etc at the schematics it looks to me its the pump aswell.

ok, lets start, the whole assembly fuel pump an filter plus housing costs anywere from $900 to $1200 depends were you buy ,im sure suzuki has patented the fuel system as so no one can make or copy the system ,this in turn, makes suzuki alot of money and inturn makes us poor

it is ,i remember many years ago ford did patent a certain model, the headlights alone were $1100 each tailights were $300 each ,it is verty unfair ,and considering there are no models that will swap over as well is so stoopid on suzuki,s part

What I did on my super duke was put a billet inline filter that I can pull apart and clean.
So pull fuel pump and filter from tank, Take out the fuel filter but leave the pre filter then put it all back together and fit inline filter but make sure you get one that is for fuel injection and can handle the pressure mine is rated at 55psi 40 micron.
By the way you should be able to get one from super cheap for $30 or $40.

Wont work u need to run a return line and a pressure reg
Today pulled filter out and cut th top off .there is only a small paper
Filter inside.wha ta interesting was all th crud in the swirl pot as I only clean
That in january il put up piccis when I get home from work
ok heres the piccis and im sure i can remove the paper filter though and add an external filter
