  • Petcock Kit

    I should have asked before hand but has anyone had problems with the kits from Georgefix? I ordered a pair since they were about $25 cheaper than the sets from Chacal.

    I have a Special. I bought a kit from Georgefix. I rebuilt both petcocks and the vacuum shutoff valve. They all work great.

    Reference this for rebuild:

      Thats the same walkthrough Ill be using. They were both seeping so I tore them apart the other day. The rubber washer in the middle of both petcocks was completely destroyed.

        I've never heard of anyone having any problem with anything georgefix sells. He's definitely a preferred vendor of kits for these (and other) bikes.
        1980 XS850SG - Sold
        1981 XS1100LH Midnight Special (Sold) - purchased 9/29/08
        Fully Vetterized and Dynojet Kit added, Heated Grips, Truck-Lite LED headlight, Accel Coils, Irridium plugs, TKAT Fork Brace, XS850LH Final Drive & Black SS Brake lines from Chacal.
        Here's my web page devoted to my bike! XS/XJ User's Manuals there, and the XJ1100 Service Manual and both XS1100 Service manuals (free download!).
