I've had a lot of issues with my bike like 10 speedo's, 9 starters and other things but nothing pissed me off more than loosing my very nice gas cap Friday during the POW/MIA ride.

See's I didn't have a good contact with the epoxy with I put the new thread save in. I've changed it out many times over the last couple years that I've had it but for the long rides I've always put my stock cap back in. Guess I figured someone would take off with my fancy Covington gas cap.

Anyway, riding home I get hit with something on my leg and I'm wondering what it was. First thought my MP3 player fell off my neck but I still had music in my ears! :lol:
I soon start smelling gas very stongly and look down and see everything gone, cap and thread adapter.

Boy that thing was expensive :eek::eek:

Guess it's time for one of Jakes caps since I still have my original thread saver. Just didn't need the added expense now but that's life.

Ok, bitching over :lol::cheers::lol:

Running strong. Definately a difference in the 06 heads over the 05's. Still have lifter noise though so going to adjust them again tonight. Didn't have any lifter noise before so it's probably just me not getting them right.

That's all we need is one more freakin bitch whining on this site.

Be positive, now you will get something new and shiny on your reliable scoot.

I can get the stock gas cap from my scoot to you on Monday?

NEVER SEEN IT BRO... PICS!!!
I think when I pulled my adapter out to fix my broken vent tube I must not have cleaned it out well enough. This was the cap and adapter I had from Covington Cycles. Some may recognize it as another cap but it's not.

That sucks Man, but at least you still have your MP-3. You can alway stick a sock in the gas tank to keep the gas from leaking, but you can stick a sock in you ear and listen to music :lol::lol::lol: take care ride safe Ray :D
