You have a complete lack of troubleshooting skills! 

Seriously though, It's hard to believe that with all the bikes you've disassembled, you've never taken apart a petcock.  There is a diaphragm that stops fuel flow when closed.  When the engine's running, the diaphragm is opened.  PRI bypasses that diaphragm and gets fuel straight from the RES hose.

   

actually I have taken mine apart for the 99'  I had to replace the o-ring that seals the switch. I assumed the bike was gravity fed because I have run the engine, bypassing the frame mounted petcock with a plastic bottle.

  I just made a mistake. just like that guy with "a complete lack of troubleshooting skills".  I guess in a way I proved that point.
Anyway I stated that I mightve been wrong, and if I was somone would correct me, as LX did.
