Title: WTB Gas Tank Cap
Post by: 4strings on February 21, 2011, 04:15:33 PM
Looking for a replacement gas cap.  I'd really like one that is key-less (just screws out) but any one with I'll just take the tumblers out of the lock cylinder.  I only saw one on ebay and it was blue.  Not great on a black and silver bike.  Let me know

Got some. I'll check 'em over when I get home and pick a good one that doesn't have matching ignition and seat lock, as someone may need a set.
I do recall a new one that had a non-suzuki key. I don't remember if a suzuki key will go in. If not, I'll pick one of the others for you.
Oh - yea - we replaced Trey's ignition and gas cap Saturday. Ignition was worn out but the gas cap was good. You can have that one. I'll be sure it comes with a key. (Ignition tumblers (or I think they're really wafers in these types of locks) too worn out to be of any real value unless someone wanted to re-key it.
PM if interested and shoot me an offer for the gas cap. say $20 shipped? $25 if you want a key? (I'll have to get the key copied as I only have one key and need it until I re-key the seat lock, which I might do tonight)

I've used these:
Nice lever to open it up.

Oberon:
Looks a lot better, but with gloves it can be kinds hard to unscrew the cap.

Also the Vortex which is like the Oberon

There are lots of others around.

PM'd you. All taken care of.
