More questions guys. Do any other petcocks, ie XS250/400/500/750 etc fit a standard XS650 special tank ? Also can I fit a right hand side petcock on the left side ? I know the petrol pipe would be pointing the wrong way but right side ones are the only new ones for sale in UK on ebay. I could live with it been the wrong way just to get it up and running, thanks, $tevie.

Special tanks used vacuum petcocks with mounting hole centers spaced 46 mm. apart. A pair of inexpensive Motion Pro manual petcocks in Pingel adapter plates will do the job, or you can fabricate your own plates. Just block off the vacuum barbs on the carb mounts and you're good to go.
If you want to know whether petcocks from other machines are the same, use one of the many vendor sites with Yamaha parts listings and check it out; if the part number is the same, the part is the same.

Thanks for the info. I have a tap on it's way so if that does not work I'll go your route. I'll let you know how I get on, cheers $tevie.
