Question for Replacement

Jetfoi · March 10th, 2015, 04:44 AM

Hi Everyone

I need a new petcock for my 1995 ninja 250 and I am finding 1995 ninja ex500 petcocks. Will this fit my 250? or should I just go to kawaski and buy the 250 petcock?

I bought a new one for my wifes bike, it was only $50 vs the $75n i saw everywhere else. I'll see if I can find it, but all I did was search for the part numberon google and bought the best price.

Sorry it won't fit.

The EX500 PETCOCK body it too short compared to the Ninjette.

Here is a write up I did on the Topic,

Ninja 250 petcock rebuild Vs replace

Quote:

Your petcock is shot, save your time, and money and get a new one, the cost of rebuilding it isn't much cheaper, due to you need two separate kits, as they for some reason don't make just one.

New one cost about $65.00

Also be sure to order the O-rings 92022, 51039 and new bolts 92001,trust me you'll be better off in the long run.

Rebuilding kits are about $60 total.

K&L Supply Diaphragm Only for Fuel Petcock Repair Kit 18-6638 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0055DWO60..._s1CGub1W9N3PH

IMHO not worth it rebuilding, also be sure to check vacuum and fuel lines for wear, holes, and cracks, if in doubt replace them.
