Take it you don't have a fuel tap?.........
The original fitting for the SB6 is a duel outlet vacuum operated tap manufactured by Paioli.......
...If you find a source, please share as I'm also in need of one |

Thanks for your help guys. I have a tank but the fuel tap that came with it doesn't fit. I thought I had read somewhere that the standard tap wasn't that good and to replace it with something else. I was hoping a Suzuki tap might work, but I guess there is probably a space problerm. |

Hi the link from vort28 is spot on, that is what I fitted to mine.( Just remember to blank off your vacuum pipe from the manifold.) Reaching it is OK once you are familiar with where to reach for it up the back of the seat from underneath . PS watch that exhaust (HOT) Oh and try to remember which way is ON / Reserve and OFF.
