With the price of gas soaring, I'm looking for a gas cap for my S1WL. What's the Buell part #?
Any other ideas?
thanks,
Overload in Colorado

I bought a locking gas cap from a 2000 S-3 on E(vil)-Bay and it fit's my '98 S-1 just fine.

be aware that the lock is operable with any same size key, or a cotter pin, for that matter -- it will slow down a theif, though, and, often, that's all ya need -- not dissing anyone/thing, but you should be aware what you're getting

Locks are to keep honest people honest.
If someone is truly a criminal they'll figure out a way to steal anything.

Yeah. If they want it that bad they can just poke a hole in the tank with a pick.

Will be moving this thread to the Knowledge Vault's "Engine: Fuel Sys..." topic. : ) Please in the future post all such tech related threads to the applicable KV topic. : )

Thanks for all your help in getting the ol' BadWeB organized. : )
