Bike was having an issue starting so long story short,took the vacume line out petcock sprayed carb cleaner in line and it started right up, went for a bit then shut off, repeated process then started again seemed like it struggled for gas then shut off again. 1. Can I take the petcock off and clean it possibly fixing solution 2. Put a new one on, the ones I'm finding are a bit expensive around 100$ if anyone knows where I can get one cheaper or they just recomend where to get one from distributor they trust,I'm in U.S. Thanks guys

You do have the vacuum line hooked up, right? if so, sounds like you have some kind of problem with the petcock...likely the diaphram in it. you can get a rebuild kit for the petcock.

Yes the vacuum line is hooked up. Any recommendation on where to get rebuild kit?

Non-vacuum aftermarket petcock could be just as cheap and quick. Not had any problem with mine, you then just cap or T the vacuum lines.
