I ended up buying two petcocks (after market) from McKees Motorcycles in Delhi, Ont. I had previously found the part # on the internet.
If you are interested, I can give you the part #. It mounts perfectly but has only on, off, res. I just had to file the opening in the tank to accept the round filter as the original is oblong.
I turn it to off if it sits for londer that 10-12 hours. BONUS, no more gas in the oil
