Yes, when the engine is running. That is what the separate vacuum line on the petcock is for, it pulls vacuum from one of the carbs, which allows fuel to flow.

At least the Suz system worked from the mid-60s on, unlike Bill's system, which is still in development. But he does have millions, if not billions, of Beta testers. Some call them users, but IDK.

i have an inline fiter and I noticed there was no fuel in it while in on position,so this is normal? The bike hasn't been started in a while,maybe three weeks.I couldn't get fuel to flow even in Pri position Took tank off now it flows???
