Yeah they are cheap as hell at wally world! Yeah I just bought a Kirban one it was 125 CAD... that was kinda retarded because the BBk one that I have lasted maybe 400 miles and I paid 100 for it. I said before that you can change them with the upper on, and you can but its a PITA, you have to get under it and take the 5 lil bolts out and the prop up the fuel rail and get it off, plus one time I did that and spilled a but load of fuel.....went to go crank my car over something arced out and my engine was engulfed!! hahah good thing I had beer on hand and there was a **** load of fresh snow or it coulda been bad.... therefore MAKE SURE ALL FUEL IS CLEANED UP! hahahha it was pretty exciting
