    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I broke my petcock on my 83 gs550e. What is interchangeable?
 
Easiest would be to find the petcock part # on www.bikebandit.com and cross reference it. Copy and paste it to their search bar, then on the next screen click "fits machines" or whatever it's called.

Short answer: a good many Suzuki petcocks will fit.

BUT, ... if you want to order a petcock, please ignore Bike Bandit and use ANY of the other vendors. They are ALL cheaper, except for Alpha Sports.

Bike Bandit will also mess with your mind as they are the ONLY ONES that don't use official Suzuki part numbers. :mad:

I found this on some guy's website:

CLICK HERE to download a PDF guide for the Alpha-Sports site cross-reference.
(Note: If the newer part numbers return no results, use the older, superseded numbers.)

The OEM part number for your petcock is 44300-43470.

But it seems the petcock for your bike is NLA. So I would suggest giving Z1Enterprises a call <www.z1enterprises.com> and see what they have available. You'll have to use an aftermarket petcock and possibly an adapter plate. They should know what you need.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
