Petcock plate only available from Thailand ?

Post by danielzink » Sat Jan 21, 2017 4:59 pm

I did some searching...

Is Thailand really the only place to source this plate 16954-250-000 ?

37 bucks...and a month wait....

There's been mention of a plate to adapt a regular "Pingel" style petcock to the tank ? Has anyone seen one ?

Thanks, Dan

I never could get my original petcock to work, even with all new parts, so I converted to one of these:

Where are you located?

Already ordered the part from Thailand...

But I still went and ordered the eBay piece. I'll have it way before the other "part" shows up.

Then I'll just rebuild the stock petcock and have it in case I sell the bike and someone wants it.
