    Low profile petcock query

    A customer of mine is running 33mm smoothbores on a GS1000E.
    I managed to find a petcock with a lower profile than standard from another Suzuki but it's still not a nice setup. we need a lower profile one again.
    I imagine everyone is going to say, Pingel...but looking at their website it's very hard to tell if one of theirs is suitable.

    Can anyone confirm if one of Pingels offerings will fit with the tall 33 smoothbores please.

    Thanks

    Greg

    I believe Pingle sells adapters for there petcocks for the 1000. My brother used to run 33's on his 79 1000e until I stole them off of him... I made my oun adapter for my 1100e. Give them a call.
    My Motorcycles:
    22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
    22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
    82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
    81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
    79 1000e (all original)
    82 850g (all original)
    80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

        Ha - customer is doing that as he has better internet...I was hopeful someone here had sorted the same carb/tank combo.

        Gravity still works the right way here, it's you guys who are upside down.
