I know a few have changed their petrol caps

Any recommendations and places to buy from ??

There is a place on here somewhere that gives a discount on TVM fuel caps.

That's my recommendation. Had one on the ZX6R for a while now. The quality is excellent.

Have the same tvm one and happy with it.

Tbh I have a tvm one and a Harris one and they look identical. I'm sure there made by the same people and just badged differently.

Brill - I found the link as well ( on a thread I originally started )

I need some retail therapy

I hear the new ZX10R is very nice

That's a pricey fuel cap.

Free bike, mind you.

Speaking to Stuckey over the weekend at Donny and he mentioned that he had experienced a fuel leak using a replacement petrol cap

Anybody else experienced this ??

Not with any of mine.

Yes I have had experience with lots of petrol loss. One ride on the ducati when some kind person removed the cap while I was in the shop and then had to ride home with my hand over the hole in the tank.

Just bought a diamond racing one and I'm impressed nice quality and not badly priced.

None so far, but I haven't ridden it a massive amount since I fitted it.

Yes...with whatever fancy-schmancy quick-release cap I had....there's a tiny breather hose that it needs...you don't use it, and gas will start to ooze out of the cap....'gas expansion' or sommit???
