I do remember the manual recommending turning of the petcock. In practice, I leave it on when the bike is in frequent use and I turn it off when it will be parked for more than a day or two.

My Yama has the vaccuum operated petcock, but I really prefer having the option to turn it off when wanted or needed. It simplifies running the carbs dry when winterizing.
