Dont say that!! Barney may ask you why you didnt stop and pick it up if you knew it fell, out and write you a littering ticket as well. When it comes to cops..less is more in your favor!!

MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550
NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it. -

I guess it depends on how many Harley's run around your neck of the woods. Up here in WNY I ran an open V+H for years and never got pulled over for that particular violation. Whichever way you decide, that is a sweet ride.Last edited by Guest; 05-29-2011, 09:31 PM.Comment

LOTS of Harleys here. We have Street Vibrations, which is the 4th largest Harley gathering in the U.S. The cops "turn a deaf ear" to most everything during that event because of the revenue it brings.
I'll eventually get some kind of baffle made up for the pipe, or have something made like russer did.Comment

Well I got the leaks fixed, carbs synched, and ready to put the tank and body parts back on a go for a ride! Got the fuel sending unit installed, put the stock petcock back on and carefully started puting the tank back on the frame. Guess what? The stock petcock hits the VM33's and can't be used.
No one ever told me that, nor have I ever seen that mentioned anywhere. Oh, well. No riding for me.

Can you remove the inner rubber washer and allow the tank to be moved up in the back just abit to accommadate the differences? And maybe add abit more cushion on top of the tank pad thats on toip of the frame back by the bolt mount??MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

Could someone post a pic or two of a '80 petcock then?
I have quite a few petcocks in my parts supplies and might have one for Bruce.

I don't think they are interchangeable. The bolts on the petcock won't line up with the holes on the tank.
FYI it's the type without the selector lever.Comment

They arent...
And just for another FYI, the aftermarket ones you can buy from Z1 wont work either... Even if they have the correct bolt hole spacing, the tap faces the wrong direction and wont clear the frame tube. So you're stuck with either a Pingel or pingel knock off, or the crap stocker... As you can see, they (Zook) only used those for one year... LOLComment
I believe that I have two of those.
