Umm what video ???, the link took me to vintage gas tanks on ebay !
LOL....
sounds like the filters are the wrong size !
back in my dirt bike days I had a "Green weeny" as we called them keep wanting to fall off so I took some bailing wire and went a full revolution around the front of the carb and then back to under the hose clamp on both sides 180 degrees apart... it never fell off again.... kind'a a stop-gap solution and it's ugly but maybe you could use stainless steel wire and keep it shinie ??? LOL
..... anything's better than having the air filters fall off going to town and loosing them ! (been there done that one)
....
I'm really surprised at how well the Ninja ran today.... i finally got the rt. carb airscrew turned out a little more and what a difference that has made !
I think I'll try it in the morning when it is cold in the shop though before I call it fixed ! HAHAHAH
