Different Petcocks?

Question:

I have a 76kz900

Im looking to buy a new petcock.


what type is the best? Ive seen Z1 I know their parts


Im curious though, when I google KZ parts, I get very little resources.

I can understand, but does is the kz900 petcock specific or can I just buy one that has a 22mm thread?

Does it have to be NOS or are there other petcocks that would fit but arent advertised to fit specifically for the kz900.

I hope I explained this right lol

Give Z1E a call. They have a cheap one for under 15 bucks and they have pingles for around 75 bucks if I recall correctly. Neither are stock but either will work. You might try ebay too but Z1E would be my first place to look. Hope this helps

Z1E used to have (not sure if they do still or not) a replica petcock for the Kz900. I bought it and have not had any issues with it. It looks right and works - same dual exit. I can't seem to find it on the site anymore, though...
