    standard petcocks

    I'm in need of a pair of petcocks off a standard tank. I have a pair of specials I can trade.

    Just in case you didn't know but the petcocks stay with the tank. Special petcocks DO NOT fit on a standard tank and standard petcocks DO NOT fit in a special tank. The mounting changes are different sizes.

      Late XS650 petcocks are a direct fit to the XS1100 standard. Mike's XS has new replacements.

              But they don't come in the two sides, which means that one will work backwards. That of course would likely not be a problem once you got used to them .
