NC30 Fuel reserve?

[iArGod]

Hey people,

When i took my tank off to get it painted i also removed the fuel tap.
Once i'd riden it a couple weeks later i found it didnt have a reserve the hard way!

I just seen a picture in a parts catalogue and my tap appears to be missing bits off?
Ive marked the image with a red rectangle to highlight the sections that arent present on my fuel tap.



As you would assume, once my petrol is gone from 'On' theres no difference in turning it to 'Res'


Thanks for your time

yep its missing the whole filter. i bet its in the tank rolling around. if not then someones been in there before you and removed it for some idiotic reason.
replace it asap and then you will get a reserve back

......yep but don't expect much of a reserve. I only got 12 miles (which wasn't enough)

thanks for the advice, someone must have removed it before me as we haven't come across it at all!

how much do they go for?

I think they come as a complete Tap only

David Silver spares should be able to get you one... theres one on Yahoo Auctions at the moment new old stock for about 80 quid

So how are they attached to the tap?
because looking at a fuel tap without one it isnt apparent anything was even present before

Thanks
