    I don't think anyone has confirmed that an elbow from Zipty or the 2011 OEM Xlite Elbow listed above works in any bike other than it is listed for such as: 08-10 250/310/450/510.

    PLEASE CONFIRM IF YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY used these parts on a 08-10 250/310/450/510. ... I have not broke mine but the day may come and I don't want to trial and error if I don't have to... THANKS !:thumbsup:

    I Purchased the Zipty elbow for my 2011 TE310 and I managed to make it work.
    The link below and the description is what I bought. Also, I just posted a review on Zipty to confirm it worked for me.

    http://www.ziptyracing.com/husqvarna-gas-tank-elbow/

    "Product Description
    Fits 2011 Husqvarna 250-310 TC/TXC/TE models. This billet aluminum elbow replaces the stock plastic elbow that mounts on the gas tank. The stock one has a tendency to break so this new billet aluminum version is stronger".

    However, it was a bit of a pain in the ***. I had to fiddle with it and rotate it so I could get the hose to connect to the fitting. When I removed the tank I removed the hose to the injector body. I may have been trying to put is on backwards, I'm not sure. Anyway, after reversing the hose a couple of times and rotating the fitting, it worked fine. The tank slipped on and seated (after the umpteenth time!).
    I can confirm it worked for me. I cannot comment on any other model or year.

    MY11 thats what its made for and yes it fits perfectly..... the MY11 TE310 is on the usable on list. The guys were asking if would fit other models like the older FI bikes.

    Hi, I know this thread is old, but I just snapped the elbow for my 08 TE 450 and nobody has confirmed the Zipty one works for anything below 11 models. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement as I can't find anything :/

    I'm pretty sure you can't get them anymore, so no idea what I'm going to do.
