God damnit...

Turns out that the leak was the diaphram on the petcock...

Turns out that when you take it apart it dissinegrates in your hands...

Turns out there's a repair kit for every Honda model ever produced... except this one...

Turns out that there's a recall on it...

Who wants to guess that the dealer will require me to bring in the bike in for them to repair it... and who wants to take bets on it NOT working when I put it back together...

Motherfucker.

Got a call back from the dealer this morning... If the VIN falls under the recall, I can bring in the petcock and get a replacement... Just gotta wait for the part to come in... :banana:

That's cool. You would think if it was a recall part they would keep at least 1 or 2 on hand.

You would think that. But the dealer had to order my headlights on the Buell recall.

I don't want to know about your pet cock.

I think that is crappy dealership management.

Goddamnit why is everyone getting free motorcycles? Im the one who wants one!

I loved my honda ss chop.

Ok... turns out that this shit was already replaced on the recall... or most likely the bike sat in the shop and they reported it back to Honda as completed and now I'm stuck fixing it.

Great news is I can't find a rebuild kit anywhere online, so I'm going to have to buy a whole new fucking petcock... Can't say dumping $100 or so into this bike will be the end of the world, but just knowing that they obviously didn't fix it when they should have just fucking pisses me off.
