    After market petcock for 84 FJ1100

    For those of you who know this bike... stop laughing. It WILL see the road again... eventually.



    Anyone know of an aftermarket petcock that will simply bolt on without modifications? or heck... at this point, just one that will fit in the space given with some modification.
    I've rebuilt the original until it just has nothing left to work with and I'm tired of messing with it...

    If I can make at least one person smile, or pee their pants a little, or maybe spit out their drink; then my day is not wasted.

    PartsNmore sells a universal manual petcock and adapter plates, measure the mounting holes of yours center to center...

    Or... you could email Randy at RPM racing, he can get parts that are not listed on his FJ website...

      Very cool, thanks Phil


      I'd seen the universal mount at partsnmore earlier but I'll definitely send Randy an e-mail and check that route.

      Thank you!

          Yep...

          for a few years... not now though.


          haven't had time to work on her... still don't, but figured I'd get the parts and maybe the time would follow.

              Nope... we put an addition on our house that took us a year and half. Any bike time was spent riding, not wrenching.

              Now that the addition is complete... we can start on the mega to-do list that has built up... including working on the bikes.
