Petcock | Honda CB500T / CB550 / CB750

Item: Petcock for Honda CB500T / CB550K0 - K2 / CB550F (1976 and earlier) / CB750K3 - K5 / CB750F (1976 and earlier)

Why You Need This: The Honda CB500T has a few unique parts on it that are not shared with its predecessor the CB450. The gas tank is specific to the Honda CB500T and it has a very specific petcock that is obsolete. Similarly, some CB550 and CB750 models used the same tank thread and petcock style. Well, we have figured out a simple workaround to allow your Honda CB500T / CB550 / CB750 fuel tank to be usable once again. This petcock only features one outlet so a 1/4" T-fitting will have to be used to spit the fuel between the two carbs in the case of the 500T, and the two carb pairs on the 550K, 550F, 750K, and 750F.

NOTE: This will NOT fit the CB550K / CB550F / CB750K / CB750F 1977 - 1978 style tank.

*CB550K0 - K2 / CB750K3 - K5 Owners: Honda switched between two styles of petcocks on your motorcycle so if this does not look like the petcock on your motorcycle, check out the other style petcock we carry right here.

Installation Tip: If you're crafty enough it is possible to drill & tap the petcock where the 2nd fuel tap would normally go. You can see on the valve body where the casting allows for either one or two fuel lines to connect. Of course, the easier way would just be to pick up a tee from the plumbing section of your local hardware store.
