Decided to go ahead and swap out the OEM petcock with a Pingel since I have over 100K miles on the I/S and went to ValkyrieBling to order new engine hanger covers to use with the Pingel - but they don't list them anymore.   tickedoff  Anyone know a source for them??????

I just left the OEM fuel selector in place (now useless, other than a filler) and can reach the Pingel under the regular hanger covers without a problem. The fuel selector doesn't get in the way at all. In fact I use it as a guide to get me to the arm of the pingel.

I have Honda engine hangers and my dog trained me to reach right under there. Yup, even while riding. Practice in the garage on the kickstand until you can do it without looking, you'll know it buy feel, then your ready. cooldude

My present engine hanger covers completely from the bottom of the gas tank to the top of the transmission, so no way I can use them with a Pingel.

I got this one from "Carolina Bike and Trike", good folks, better service.  Contact there is Matt Teeple (cares about his customers) e-mail carolinabike@bellsouth.net  or just search his E-bay store.
  It's a laser cut polished stainless. Looks good, but not as thick as the original Honda Chrome engine hanger. I know I should be able to find a closer, better picture but I'm out of time for now.

Thanks, but I got some ordered from ValkyrieBling yesterday.  Unfortunately, they were completely out and said they wouldn't get their new batch from the chromer for probably another 2 weeks... tickedoff
