Hey all, I noticed my bike has started smelling faintly of gas while in the garage. Today I pulled it out and looked around, there was a bit of wet gas on the petcock casing. Is replacing this an easy home repair?

Replace the the petcock? Yep it’s pretty easy. No special tools needed really, just a wrench big enough to get around the large nut that hold it on and a pair of pliers to remove the clamp off the fuel like. You will want to drain your tank first.
