Hey man, first of all, thank you for that video. It helped me understand a lot of things as a beginner rider. Second, I have the stock petcock paired with the keihin fcr39 carb. My bike won’t run when the petcock is at the ON position and will stall on idle at the PRI position. From your video, I can understand that it has something to do with the vaccum of the petcock since there isnt any hose or vaccum block on the vaccum port. My question is, while I wait to buy a ON/OFF/RES petcock, what can I do to make my bike rideable? Block the vaccum port of the stock petcock? Thanks mate!
@linksgarage19854 ай бұрын
First of all, thanks for watching! I wrote an entire comment about the PRI position because I didn’t read that in your comment. Unfortunately, blocking off the vacuum port at the petcock won’t work. Because there is a diaphragm inside that works in vacuum and won’t let the fuel flow if there isnt any. I think you’re stuck until you get a standard petcock. You could maybe take the vacuum petcock apart and remove diaphragm inside if it’s like an emergency and you have to get home. But I really wouldn’t recommend it. My recommendation is to not ride it until you get the right petcock man.

Do you shut the petcock off each time you park the bike? My understanding is if the float valve sticks and the petcock is left in the on position when you park the bike, gas will flood the cylinder. Remembering to turn it off and back on would seem to be the only drawback. That and the reduced reserve range. Switch to a standard petcock and removing the PAIR valve gets rid of all those vacuum lines and fittings which is nice.
