I found this replacement fuel petcock on ebay. This will replace the old leaky original tank petcocks on the CA95/CA160/CA77 Dreams. I bought this one for my CA160. It saves me from welding a bung in a good tank and ruining the value of a solid Honda tank. The base is made of aluminum and can use the original or replacement screws

Did you find under CA95 parts? Looks like a harley evo petcock

Yes, it's a Harley petcock. I bought one awhile ago for a tank that I had a 14mm bung welded in the tank. I found it under search words "CA96 petcock" on ebay. $29.00 was a steal. He is selling just the base mount for $19.99

It beats trying to find a good original fuel petcock. The beauty of it is that the tank remains original if you should want to install the original style petcock.

Thanks for the heads up. Will check it out

That's so strange - it must be petcock week because I was just reading this as well:

Oh, and this is an interesting article for anyone rebuilding the original:

In case you never considered the condition of the lever's mating surfaces to the gasket material he reminds everyone of this....

Crap...my seals will leak oil as well! Ha!

I can't believe you're giving up on the Honda petcocks so easily! When I assembled my petcock with the rebuild kit inside I had to source an o-ring because I didn't trust that flat rubber washer that was provided in the rebuild kit. It leaked a tiny amount for a few hours but then stopped and has been holding ever since. I would think that Vaseline or dielectric grease (my new favorite substance) could help seal the innards. I do feel your pain though. The original petcock seems as it was intentionally designed to be difficult! I hope that bike stay together after the install.
