Petcock For the Kz750B Twins?

Anybody know what new petcocks will fit onto the fuel tanks for the older KZ750B series twins?

I realize it probably will have only one outlet and need a splitter, but does anything screw onto the tank pipe as is?

If the tank has a bung, it will be a 22mm bung and you can buy an aftermarket petcock from Z1Enterprises.com... either the less expensive type or a Pingel.

Found one at Z1 that should fit and has dual outlets. Problem is it's ~$105.00 !!

Whew! But as they said about the suits in Men in Black.... Last one you'll ever need...or was that own? I don't know how much cheaper the single outlet ones are but they are high flow and teeing one might be cheaper.

The two outlets 180 across from each other would be a real pain to try to fit in, the one I have is 90 degree offset. A single outlet with a split would actually be a lot easier to fit in for me.

This one looks too good to be true. Anybody know if these are any good?

At that price you could buy a new one every year.
