I bet that the loose petcock cover, is what is make my bike idle fast. Letting air bypass the valve.

The closest I have is a tighter fit but it still leaked. But I have got the rivets drilled out and replaced them with Screws. Half way there. I need to find a better sealing O ring, graham Sent from my iPad On May 24, 2014, at 7:54 PM, "'Rmj' via Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" <[email protected]> wrote: Great info Thank you, Ross From: Kyle Munz Sent: 5/24/2014 5:16 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Honda CB700S fuel petcock My rebuild is actually from a 650 petcock, not a 700S, however there's an interesting bit of information from Dennis Hammerl at the end about drilling out the rivets and replacing them. http://nighthawk.kylemunz.com/?p=151 -Kyle On Sat, May 24, 2014 at 5:23 PM, 'Rmj' via Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers! <[email protected]> wrote: Graham, My '92 is garaged right because one of the rivets broke. I'm planning on drilling both out & using self tapping screws. Next weekend when I get home from this trip. Thank you, Ross From: Graham Rogers Sent: 5/24/2014 2:44 PM To: Nighthawk Lovers Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] Honda CB700S fuel petcock Has anyone taken apart a 700S fuel petcock that leaks. The part in particular is the riveted cover plate, anyone filed off the rivets, repaired leaking rubber part and put the plate back on some how? I want to know how that worked out. Second question, is there another fuel petcock that would fit the 700S. The main difference is the threaded hole into the tank. The 700S is larger than earlier models and the CB650SC Nighthawk of the same year, Graham -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
