Petcock Levers
I ordered the OEM part for my bike and it did not come with a lever. Does it truly not have one? If it does, anyone know where to get it? Thanks!!!Tags: None

There is no lever on that particular petcock. Install it and go. The service manual, which I trust you already have, details everything you need to know regarding this subject.Ed
To measure is to know.

T from the ground is prime (which requires a quick puff of vacuum to actually work)
Parallel to the ground is run or on.
I'm referring to that tiny slot in the front of the petcock.1983 GS 1100E w/ 1230 kit, .340 lift Web Cams, Ape heavy duty valve springs, 83 1100 head with 1.5mm oversized SS intake valves, 1150 crank, Vance and Hines 1150 SuperHub, Star Racing high volume oil pump gears, 36mm carebs Dynojet stage 3 jet kit, Posplayr's SSPB, Progressive rear shocks and fork springs, Dyna 2000, Dynatek green coils and Vance & Hines 4-1 exhaust.

Oh no!
The dreaded 1980 petcock!
There's no reserve and it's really inconvenient to use a little screwdriver to change from "ON" to "PRIME". It should work as advertised. Just keep an eye on your gas gauge and learn how many miles you can go before you need to fill up again.
Thank you for your indulgence,
