Tank Bung Thread Pitch

[slawsonb]

2 questions:

1) Is the thread on a 175/200 tank bung the same as a 350? 22mm?
Update:
Just learned that a 175/200 petcock will fit a 350 tank, but may not provide adequate fuel flow for wide open throttle conditions. Thanks DL.

2) What is the pitch of the thread?

Thanks

I put the 175 tap on the 350 for a while it seemed  fine though I didn't ride it for very long. The fuel lines are different. The 350tap won't work on a early 175 as you don't get clearance with the oil tank yes 22mm can't help with the pitch.  I did buy a so-called bridgestone replacement tap it does not turn off

  Hi Bert,
             Using the site pitch gauge  , I measure the 350 tank stub thread pitch at 1.0mm.                      Brian.

Thanks Brian.  I need to acquire one of those gadgets so I can answer my own queries. I had done some research (google is my friend) and the 1mm pitch makes these bungs and petcocks interchangeable (interference not withstanding) with post '75 Harleys and several other makes. I appreciate you taking the time to answer definitively.
Thanks Coxy for confirming the interchange between 350 and 175/200 petcocks and you too DL.
  Another quandary put to bed.

  Cheers Bert,
                      Have seen reference to certain Harley taps being suitable alternative.

         See here under 'Interchange' for more details...............   http://www.bridgestonemotorcycle.com/parts.htm     Lots of other good parts info, as well.                

   My pitch gauge came with a cheap  but extensive tap & die set I bought years ago.  Most of smaller taps now useless, gauge is quite high quality and still going strong.

I bought the most comprehensive one I could find yesterday. Quality TDB.

It's been a few years but if I remember correctly I put a tap from a Z1 Kaw on one of my GTRs with no problem.  Flows more fuel than the standard tap also.  I wouldn't abuse one of my girls like this now but when I was young, the gtr would starve a bit for fuel if being held open for several miles.
