    KL Petcocks?

    Z1 Enterprises specializes in quality Motorcycle parts for Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha Classic Japanese motorcycles from the 1970's and 1980's.


    Are these worth a crap?

    I know OEM is best, but an OEM petcock runs about $85-100 before shipping. My original petcock is functioning, but I want to get another one for my second tank. Be nice to save a couple bucks, and hunting for deals on eBay shows either no petcocks for pre-1980 bikes, or used petcocks that "may need a rebuild."

    TIA

    They have worked fine for me.

      That K&L unit looks similar to unit that I got off Florida outfit- exact copy of my original (stamped made in Japan). But the res kicks in at lower level which is good for my tiny tank since I drive in lots of hills.

          I snapped my fuel petcock lever off and was also looking on eBay for replacements. There are a few K & L's at about $20-$25 less than OEM. Nice to know they are as good as OEM.
