CB125 petcock

[CB Josh]

Rookie question: Does anyone know how to take the petcock off a CB125 tank? The bottom unscrews but I don't know where to go from there. I don't want to ruin the rubber seal or the small screen that is in there. I've spent some time on the tank and have the inside looking like new, now I just need to get the petcock clean.

Thank you.

Don't worry about the rubber ring and mesh screen - they should be replaced after all these years anyway.

There should be a single bolt above that screen though. Take it out and the petcock should pop right off.

Great! Do you think Honda will have those pieces? For some reason I'm having the hardest time trying to find 125 parts. Thanks again for your help.

 

[Big R]

They are definitely around - if I'm not mistaken, they use those parts on a LOT of older Honda's.

Awesome, thanks for helping out a newb on his first build.

Check servicehonda.com or bikebandit they should have a breakdown of your bike and the parts to fix the petcock.
