Here is what I did for my 125cc carb/petcock interference problems. Took standard fittings and ground down or drilled and retapped to 12 mm X 1.0
thread with tap and die. Unable to find any fittings with a 1.0 thread pitch anywhere.

I want to see someone weld another petcock fitting to the right side of the tank. That would be cool. I went with the tb petcock & kitaco 12 way carb adaptor.

Expensive solution - Aftermarket tank with the petcock in the proper place to fit a big carb.

If you are running a downtype exhaust you could also use a manifold running at the right side. (No petcock issues)

I have a piece of black car heater hose that kicks the filter sideways, kinda mini intake. Ok, so where is a good place to find a aftermarket tank that looks good? Also "Z" I like that petcock, where can I find me one of those?
