Are the newer style petcocks as good as oem?

[NCAmother]

I’ve got an 850T tank that needs petcocks. The newer style are much cheaper, are they any good for non stock 850T?  As good as the more expensive petcocks?  Thank you

I put that style petcock on the v65 about five years ago. No problems so far. Made in Italy.

I've installed at least a dozen pairs of them, never had a problem.

I put a pair of those in my 76 Convert, its been over 3 years now with no problems. They were a bit" stiff" at first, I took them apart,and lubricated the area under the handle ,with some silicone grease,,and they work very smoothly.

Stay away from the re-pop sugar cube petcocks. Every set I've bought started leaking pretty quickly. The new BAP style work.
