The fuel line just ahead of the fuel filter split and stranded me in the Chick-Fil-A parking lot. Since I had my bike on the bike rack I was able to ride to the AutoZone, puchase fuel line, a small gas can, ride to the gas station and ride back to the Westy to repair it. The repair took about 10 minutes, the ride was fun, and the chicken was delish!
