    Cant find a petcock rebuild for my 450.

    I am having a hard time finding the correct rebuild kit for my petcock. My bike vin tag says 7/81 450 L, So Im assuming it is an 82 model. But it doesnt really matter because it seems like all the kits I find are for 83+. Carbkitcapital.com had one for an 81 model "T" so I bought it, and it's not the right one. (Waste of $20)

    OldBikebarn.com doesnt show one, and if I go with Bikebandit or the dealership Im looking atleast $30 in individual gaskets. Anyone have a good source for a rebuild kit? New petcocks are $80, and Id rather rebuild the old because the filter is bent to accomodate my formed tank and fits well. Im starting to find out the 450 is the red headed step-child of the GS's...

    Thanks, Jason
