martin, aren't they 7mm? While 5/16" might suffice, European car parts supplier, such as German or Italian, should carry the correct line. If not, Suzuki dealers also sell 7mm line.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationSince my tank isnt the original tank and the OEM petcock wont botl up, as long as the thread size matches on my tan and this one, will this one work?


I dont see why it wouldnt unless the clear valve that goes in the tank is too long.

Where the brass fitting is, thats where this petcock should bolt up to.

Sobi took my tank with me to my local harware store and I figured oit that the bung the previous owner had put on is a 3/8 inch. So I found a few universal ones on ebay that should work. Do you know what size a 3/8 would be in mm? I googled ot but I didnt seem to find a straight answer. Thanks again guys for your help.

There is no straight Answer. Metric threads and standard threads are different. Go to pingles website, they may have a petcock that will work
Mine:
04 Honda rebel 250(wifes)
04 GSXR 750(bolt on galore)
98 CBR 600F3(filter, pipe, adjustable cam sprokets, dyno tune)
76 KZ900A (LTD gauge pods, crash bars, LTD(style)pipes, dyna coils and ignition,headwork and mild port cleanup by cavanaugh racing, K&N filter pods, heck I dunno.

Thanks for all your help guys. I got my petcock situation figured out. The new on is installed and works great. I do have a question off subject. What do I gap the spark plug to? In the manual it says .6~.7 I am going to assume thats mm not inches right?
