Bloody fuel tap came off today

[smilinjack 0]

I was barrelling up the M1 on my way home from Enfield, when I felt this gentle pressure on the inside of my calf. Looked down to see the plastic fuel tap on the final couple of mm to oblivion. Next thing it's dropped off the spigot and whoosh!! Off it pops. Screw must have vibrated out unless someone's been tampering with it. So I need a fuel tap for a ZZR if anyone's got one in their shed I'll ring Cradley Kawasaki tomorrow I guess

Got the part number and if that microfiche is to be believed it's £9.17. I'd settle for that.

I thought you were going to say snapped as well, and the gentle pressure on the inside of your leg being fuel
Not going to say an easy fix because you know what that means hope you get sorted soon though!

Ordered today for the princely sum of £7.50. Also ordered 4 spark plug gaskets for the rocker cover ready for my winter service. Should get it early next week. It's a simple screw in job, 30 seconds if I take my time
