550 F2 Petcock
« on: Today at 08:46:07 PM »
Hi Guys. I'm looking for a little advice on petcocks for my 550 F2 project. It came work 2 tanks - one came off an F1, the other is unknown. It may be an F2 or may be from a K-series. Both fit the bike, but have very different mountings for the peacock. The F1 tank has an outlet about 18mm dia and has a twin outlet tap fitted  the other has no tap but the outlet is only about 15mm. Can anyone advise if this 15mm tank is correct for my bike?
Thanks!

The 15mm taps are much easier to find, I needed the bigger size and really struggled to find one.
Love the 500 and 550 have a 500 called Lazarus under restoration
