I've just got a Sachs Roadster 650 which uses the Suzuki DR650 single. Seller told me he thought there was a fuelling problem and he's right - petcock only lets fuel through on 'Prime' as soon as the engine warms up 'on' or 'res' don't work. Bit of research shows this is a common issue. Is it worth bothering to clean or repair the standard vacuum petcock, or should I just get a manual replacement?
