Petcock Preference for Hammer 1275 build?
What's going on guys? I really hope this wasn't posted before because I actually searched for it.
Build 93 hugger hammer 1275
80hp build
Mikuni hsr42
Andrews n4
Dyna 2ki nosecone
Bottom end completed rebuild with Timken and Jims bearings.
Danmoto 2 into 1
So now that I got that out of the way.
Is there any gain from the Golan Petcock with the -AN6 Fitting vs the regular barb style?

Okay thank you. Would it be a waste of money to even get a higher flow one now even if I wanted to go for more power in the future?

Here's the google search results on the XLForum for 'pingel golan petcocks' - I know they have the reputation (& price) ... but I've been very happy with my Ness Hi-Flow Petcock (07-030)...
Your '93 didn't have a vacuum petcock so that's an advantage - You won't gain any HP by changing, but I changed to another petcock unit (hi-flow by choice) because I didn't like the switching on the stock petcock...

Stock on my '02 is good for 90+hp so far. Haven't dyno'd with the rev limiter higher than 6200rpm and it was still climbing.
Very curious at what point the stock petcock begins to be a flow problem. I would think it's at least triple digits.

Okay thank you for the reassurance not to spend an a lot of money on the aftermarket petcock when it is not needed.
I would also like to see the flow chart on what is the absolute max for the stock one.

Does the Ness one have the positive click that everyone is crazed about these days ?
