Locking Gas Cap

[MMStingray]

I'm going to take a chance on this locking gas cap. I have the same tank that I think probably 95% of you have. I too have paranoia about people less-than-psyched about a bicycle with an engine it, "fortifying" my gas.

I'll report back when I've tried it.

Gas Cap

Found this one a while back. I forget who said, but it's supposed to work on the chinese HT tanks.

Thanks, Big Red. I think I remember seeing that and every ime I checked, they were out of stock. Ah well.

The one I got does the job, tho'. The problem was that it arrived with a protective blue film on it (shrinkwrapped, really), and man, it was a real bear to get the stuff off. Anyway, it fits fine but doesn't seem to be particularly well-ventilated. If the you have the "door" that covers the keyhole closed, the engine will stall eventually. So, I ride with the door swung open and close it when I park.

Flap

Perhaps you could try putting a small notch on the underside of the flap for airflow.
