I recently bought one of those Pingles.  Infact, I think I might have two or three, new, still sitting in their boxes....  I really ought to get them out and check for fit.  One is for an alloy CR tank.

Let me see what I can do...my buddy is extremely busy at the moment. I'd like to get a dozen made. It works perfect with the F model and RS carbs.

I definitely need one for my 78 F model. I've got 36mm flatslides on it now and the stock petcock is starving it on the big end.

Anybody interested in this? It works with the RS-34 carbs.....not sure about clearance with CR's.

Mike,

Add me to the list for my 78F model. I plan to use the dual outlet Pingel.

Frank...I believe the adapter Pingel sells will work on the 77/78F2 tank as the bung is smaller than on the early F. I believe the late F bung is the same size as on the CBX.

Hey Frank, how much would one of those adapters cost to have made for the 77/78k tank?
1978 CB750k Green - 811 engine

1974 CB375F Faded Black - had to have that 6th gear
1976 CB400F Red - in many pieces
1973 CB350F TBD - in many pieces
