Aftermarket gas caps?
« on: October 13, 2015, 09:02:35 AM »
Hi, everybody.

Are there any aftermarket gas caps that would fit and work with the OEM fuel tank?  Keyed, non-keyed...doesn't matter.  Just looking for something a little more up-to-date than the old beat up thing on my bike today.  Would love to put a more sleek cap on there.

Thanks!

Would any of the current crop of BMW gas caps work or fit with only minor modification to the OE tank?

 Well done, Johnny!  :2thumbup: on those beauties.

Looking down the page, I spied this classic Monza style cap:


Found the same article on several other sites when I googled:

Hmmm, time to think about changing my gas cap on the K75.
