Long time no post..

Inbetween renos and side projects. I finally moved my bikes to my new place.

Today I FINALLY got to doing the petcock
Not many pics. I was slacking on the documentation lol

Drained the gas



I was quite surprised how much fuel this bike holds almost filled that jerry can and the tank wasent even full all the way

Removed the stock petcock. And spotted a difference right away



The knob on the original one also wouldn't go onto the new one.
So. I opened them up



Insides were identical and looks like the original one was missing an o ring
I put the gaskets and o ring out of the new one into the old one. Put it all back together and onto the bike.
No leaks and seems to be working as it should. And fuel amount for "on" and "res" stayed the same
Plus I got to keep the knob
