So I have seen pictures of Valks with a cover in front of the petcock. Wondering if anybody knows where to find these. Can't seem to find them on parts websites and I hate how loose and wobbly my petcock is. Thanks in advance.

Petcock shouldn't wobble.  Make sure the set screw inside the handle knob is snug. 

caronlinabikeandtrike.com has the chrome covers, I think they called them engine hanger covers.

If the petcock is wobbly the threaded nut holding it to the tank may not be tightened enough.

The engine hanger cover will do nothing to stop a petcock from wobbling.

Sweet guys thanks. I'll check screws and such prior. I recently removed the tank so maybe when I put it back together it's better but didn't notice.
