Fuel tap on Z1000 always looked like from a different bike and has been almost too stiff to move since I got the bike and now part of the handle has broken off - so thought I get a replacement, but when removed it didn't look like the sort of fixing I'd have expected - anyone recognise what bike this might be from as need to get a replacement?

Looks like Kawasaki GT550 but someone has turned bits around as suction pipe should be to rear....
