DRZ400 fuel tap gasket

PottsyGS · Jun 2, 2010

I have a leaking fuel on/of/reserve tap. The flat gasket inside has split so the chambers of the changeover unit are no longer seperated. The new tap is £70 and Suzuki do not list the gasket! This is a 2.5mm thick nitrile rubber gasket with 2 circular and one elongated hole, it would cost about 5 pence...

Anyone know where to get these?

Or some 2.5mm nitrile rubber gasket material so I can cut a new one?

Looks identical on pic, anyone know if its the same tap?

DRZ400e 2001 tap part number 44300-29F10
DR125 1995 tap part number 44300-44AA1

Pics of the 2 taps look identical

Mmm, I'm not so sure.

Typed 44300-29F10 into Ron Aryes (fische, then search part number) & only 1 model came up, the DRZ400.

PM 'The Lost Soul', his tap was leaking earlier this year & he fixed it, I think Timpo sorted him out. :thumb2

Great news, I ordered the part and it is a repair kit for the DRZ400 tap, contains all 3 rubber seals and the fixing screws.

Way better than £70 for a tap :clap
