    Hi,
    the petcock of my 87 RC 24 (VFR 750 F) leaks on res/on position, after a long inactivity period.
    I have also a replacement part (external cover + movement). Whaich is the esiest way to relace ? Need to remove tank or whatelse ?
    Thank you for your help !

    On a fairly empty tank you could lean it way to the right and just replace. Once the selector is removed it's just 2 8mm head bolts. You might get some dribbles but it should go fast. Or remove tank and lay on right side.
