Hi Gang,
I need to get into the fuel tank which I have not done before - I believe my vent lines are probably cracked due to age because I'm getting fuel dripping onto the swingarm, pretty consistent, worse when the tank is full and/or it's hot out. I have a new fuel filter I'm going to put in but I guess my question is whether it would be wise to just put a new fuel pump in while I'm in there. (50k miles on what I assume is original from 99) I found this kit from Beemer Boneyard that I was looking at:

I know I'll need to get the vent lines separately - would anyone advise buying extra for the external vent lines (at $30-$40/meter it's quite pricey) or can I just use any old thing there since they are not submerged or under pressure. They are just getting hard with age and becoming difficult to route when I mount/dismount the tank.
Thanks!
