Topic: 75 750F SS pet cock filter sock

[Cougars750F0]

Can anyone tell me where to find a replacement filter sock or anything else that will work for me 1975 750F SS. The original sock feel apart and the dealer price is a little proud. Any after market types?

I had the exact same problem and I could not find the sock anywhere plus my pet cock leaked a little.

I ended up getting a new aftermarket one on Ebay for cheap. You cant really tell the difference and it solved the problem at a reasonable cost. I think it was $20-$25.00 complete with filter screen.

I think CB750 supply also has a couple that may work:

Good luck!

Just went through the garbage to find the old one to compare it to other types of nylon screen materials and could not find it. I took the pet cock apart and the rest of it is perfect. I'm hoping to find some fine nylon material or some other material that is impervious to gasoline and just make one. The bike is original and very complete and I'm trying to keep it that way just for kicks. I may be able to take a newer style filter and modify it to work. Anyone tried this? Thanks for you help.

Good luck trying to rig one. You'd probably be better off just going with a small plastic external filter. $20 or so isn't too bad for the original Honda part but you can probably get the external for $5 to $$10.

You can buy the fuel strainer new from Honda.  List price is 29 dollars, although you can find it cheaper.  P/N 16952-341-671.

That's the price that I was quoted by the dealer. It included some other stuff that I don't need or at least not yet. The PO had installed an aftermarket filter that I replaced with another similar style filter and when I tested it there was little flue flow and number 4 was being starved for fuel. The last in line and on the side stand. I read in this forum that some bike don't perform well with aftermarket in line filters. I have in closed a image of the old filer on the left and the replacement on the right. When I cleaned the tank out I discovered the sock was damaged. The fuel line are fine. Jerry Rxman Griffin we have the same bike. 1975 750 FO in Candy Sapphire Blue. Mine is all original with 9,657 miles. I'm in Oregon. Thanks to all for your help.
