Question: What did you do as far as the petcock? My buddy is building a similar bike, using the identical tank. The petcock on it seems to be starving the engine at highway speeds. Were you able to overcome this somehow? Thanks!
So I can explain it pretty simply. One line is vacuum and won’t be needed for the new tank and petcock. Easy way to tell is it goes to one of the intake rubber boots. You can remove this line and cap off the port. The other line is the fuel and this will connect to the petcock.
@@ncv4708 I've seen them on eBay and stuff and I was worried about the tunnel clearance on it if it'll fit over the Center Bar can you send the link to that exact one?

Yessir! I proudly rep DVTR as much as I can.

The one that came with the tank seems to work fine on this one. Maybe there is something else wrong? Maybe the cap isn't venting properly?
what rubber grommet/ring or holder did you use for the gas tank forward mounts? Can't find anything that works right.
I cut and used some extra thick vacuum caps on the tubing I welded in. Worked great.
It’s funny that I stubble across this video. I’m building a CB750sc cerrently, are you still with bloom.
Yup! I'm still here.
Can you make a video explaining the petcock situation , I know the nighthawks petcock has 2 lines and the after market only has 1

I found it on eBay. There are quite a few for around $75-125 new.
