Currently running an SSR keyless cap obtained on ebay,,,fit up was more that easy,,,,no leaks,,,installed a Pro-Bolt bolt cap surround set also,,in black to match the cap,,,,,purchased another one of ebay (I bid and won it for 10 bucks USD) a PSR 1/4 turn cap ,,not tried to fit it as of yet,,,I think I like the SSR better as it's a "flush fit" however,,,

Pretty good look'n cap .... How do you feel about it's function , compared to security of being able to lock the cap on and ease of use while filling up etc .....

does the cap come with a chain or something that keeps it attached or gona be dropped if not held onto while filling ?


cheers

I got these one off of ebay quite some time ago :

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Gas-Fuel- ... 3371d41eaf

pros : great fit and finish, 1/4 turn on and off, no chain, comes completely off, filling up is easy and it stays on without a prob

cons : no pressure release for fuel fumes acumulated inside the tank other than a small drilled hole, wich is obnoxios for me because I get sudden gas fumes trown at my face and it trows me off till I realise what it is

so I ended up powder coating black the original fuel cap and called it a day, anyone interested in the cnc one ? will sell for $20 shipped to mex or USA LOL

AGRO!

I have one that was advertised as vented but it still builds a bit of pressure. Not the easiest to get off in gloved hands if over tightened.
