What IS "PVLIR"?

I've spent a TON of time trying to find a definition... nowhere to be found! (Google, forums, manual, etc.)
I have 2 SuperHawks, had them in pieces and back together, so I'm familiar with the "guts".
It's the TERM I'm trying to "hunt down"...
First, would like to get a confirmation:
Is this the fuel petcock?
Second, what DOES the acronym actually stand for?
Any help would be appreciated by me and my sanity

Oh! I guess that's not official Honda lingo then - makes sense now!!

Thanks a lot!

Come to think - I'd done a substantial amount of "head scratching" when first trying to put it all together (the bike came with the tank off, so there were no clues)... And I DID end up trying that "fake" connection (without a hole) as well, if I remember right I did get it working though, despite all of that

It's official unofficial SuperHawk Forum lingo found in the unofficial SuperHawk Forum acronym handbook on page 47.

Seriously serious operation going on here

Or should I say seriously officially unofficial?

It used to be the unofficial SuperHawk Forum. I just noticed today the logo is sans unofficial, so I guess we're official now. It will always be unofficial to me.

You haven't fully lose me yet but pretty close (In which case, I'll be "officially" lost )
