Fuel Tap

Hi, I was wondering what would be the correct style of fuel tap on my bike should be. It's a bitsa I'm afraid, a KZ1000 A2 with 900 barrels on it, Z1B carbs and a Z1B tank (I think). The current fuel tap has 2 outlets at 90 degrees to each other which makes connecting the fuel pipe to the left hand carbs tricky, is this right.
Many thanks

My tap has two outlets at 90 degrees. Its ok to use but, as you say, can be tricky fitting the short fuel pipe.

Not sure about other 900 & 1000 models, but the Z900 was originally fitted with a fuel tap with the two outlets at 90 degrees to each other.

My Z1A also had a fuel tap with the outlets at 90 degrees.
