Congrats on a job well done. :up:

You bike looks like it deserves a correct petcock.
There is a guy in Germany that sells the Suzuki petcock rebuild parts including the diaphragm.

Well pet cock turned up and fitted no drips at all

Passed MOT and taxed as historic in the post office lady knew exactly what to do.

The bike rides soooo nice
