Does anyone in the states make one of these for a S1?

I like the idea it has a screw on cap. Mine seems to leak a little and generally just makes a mess.

They have some other cool stuff too like a 4 piston Brembo brake kit for the rear...

I had one on my S1W (sold it last month). The thing I noticed is the cap sleeve appeared to be glued on. After getting hot... I mean real hot, I could not take the cap off as it slipped. After it sat for a few minutes it was no problem...

Not s deal breaker by any means.. I would buy another if I had a S1...

Frank, are you talking about the Banke screw on cap, or the aluminium tank? I have the Banke cap on my S3 and it is basically glued into the tank, but I haven't had any issues with mine.
