Default Petcock service kit and bowl gasket

Hello,

The bike: '90 CBR 1000, 49 State model

In searching, I've seen folks mention a petcock service kit but I'm too dumb to find these things (in the U.S.A.). Can anyone help me with a part number or link? My petcock leaks like a sieve.

For those that have alternative gasket material on their float bowls (those OEM gasket prices are breath-taking), what did you use?

Thank you for any assistance.

Thanks. I saw a couple of sellers Stateside selling the same kit. I remember the 0-rings in my petcock looking different than that. I need to take mine apart and confirm what's in there.
