Why must petcock be “genuine” Yamaha? (Read 145 times)

JED YaBB Newbies Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 32	Why must petcock be “genuine” Yamaha? 01/20/22 at 19:23:36 Hi. When doing the Raptor Petcock mod, why must the part be genuine Yamaha as opposed to a knock-off? Is the diameter different on the nipple or something? Thanks kindly.

Reply #4 - 01/21/22 at 17:31:01 Serowbot, it's a Raptor 660 petcock you should have bought I once bought a replica from amazon, looked identical but did not work on reserve, not enough gas flow

Flow issues you say? At my age I have personal flow issues to contend with.
