    That’s the one with the slot instead of the lever, right? I think www.georgefixs.com has them. Someone reported they don’t ship to Canada. I’m guessing you have a way around that though.

        I've used Georgefix before. When I compared my old petcock with the new one I could not tell the difference. I don't know how but I think he's got a line on the originals ..... If he doesn't have one listed I'd bet he knows how to get one .....

                What about 44300-45373?

                It's showing for T, but, did the tanks change from 80 to 81?

                I found it on my local dealers fiche.

                    These are a K&L reproduction petcock from all online suppliers. I have one of those petcocks ordered through Cycle Recycle. Also on backorder, but they did not cancel my order. Called them and they were told by K&L that they would ship middle of October. Then was updated to middle of November... . But they are still producing them, so I hope to get it sometime.

                      It shows with a price, so it should be available

                        This looks like the one they used on the "Model X" generation. Tank mounted higher and there was more room to move the petcock towards the front. I believe the hole spacing is different also. Don't think it would work if you have the one without the lever.

                          It's weird that I can't use a petcock for an 81-82 GS750e is the exact same tank and for that matter so is the 80-81 gs1100e tanks
