What are the visible and functional benefits of replacing the petcock?

Replacing an old or worn petcock reduces the risk of fuel leakage and restores consistent fuel delivery to the carburetors or injectors. A new inline filter helps keep debris out of the fuel system, which can protect downstream components and improve engine responsiveness.

• Stops leaks by replacing brittle or damaged valves and seals
• New filter element traps contaminants before they reach the engine
• New hoses reduce collapse or cracking under fuel pressure
• Clamps ensure secure, vibration-resistant connections

What should I check before ordering this replacement kit?

Confirm the OEM part number on your existing fuel valve or reference your motorcycle’s VIN/year/model to ensure compatibility. Inspect mounting orientation and fuel line routing to make sure the supplied hoses and valve will fit your specific trim and aftermarket modifications, if any.

• Verify existing part numbers 16950-MEM-674 / 16963-MY5-610
• Match model/year: VTX1300 C/R/S/T as listed above
• Confirm clearance around tank and frame for lever orientation
• Check service manual for fuel-drain procedures and safety

Who is this for? Motorcyclists and mechanics who own or service Honda VTX1300 C, R, S or T models from 2004 through 2009 and need a reliable, OEM-compatible fuel valve replacement. It’s suited to DIY enthusiasts looking for a complete, ready-to-install kit that includes filter, hoses and clamps, and to shops that prefer a single-purchase solution for common petcock failures.
