    In the process of bringing my newly acquired ‘94 back to life after being in storage for 10 years. I’m going through the fuel system, which is completely gummed up and I can seem to find a petcock for this year vfr. I’ve checked the obvious places ,eBay, Amazon, Dennis Kirk and a like. Even been to a couple local wreckers. Nothing. Anyone have some info on where I can get one of these ?

    Thanks in advance
    Jim D

    I believe there are kits that allow to to rebuild it after drilling out the rivets. You then drill and tap the holes to re-install the face plate.

    I also have some plastics, a sweet sounding carbon fiber muffler, some lower than stock clip-ons , a rear wheel, all 3 floating rotors, and some other bits and pieces that I've collected over the years.

    I’m mainly interested in the petcock (assuming it’s in decent condition). Maybe the tank, is it rust free? Where are you shipping from? I also need some plastics. Like seat cowl, taillight piece above lense(not sure what it’s called).
    Let me know what other “stuff” you got !

    Jim I'm going to swap this tank out with mine and plug it in to see if the fuel gauge works. It's nice but I usually go by odometer anyway.

    There is another forum member in the bay area wanting 4 different pieces and I will make a trip down to Santa Rosa for a meet up this coming weekend if you want to pick up the pieces that you want. That way nothing will get broken in shipping and I won't have to charge you for shipping. Let me know what day and time works best for you and I will try to coordinate it with both of you guys! Cheers
