Okay, I'm gonna ask a real dumb question. These aftermarket caps don't have locks, so it's just a twist off, right?

Oberon is twist off...

Not a dumb question. You're right, most of them are just twist off. Hope you don't have too many enemies.

Haha! I guess I should be more careful about not making too many enemies. But since I also work in a crappy town, meybe not a good idea to get one.

I just figure that not many people would try to siphon gas from a bike, and if they really wanted to, the fuel lines are accessible anyways.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Right. And if they did, they would get at best $6 worth of gas.......

It's not so much somebody stealing my gas that I'm worried about, but rather putting something IN it... like sugar for instance...
Or some other wonderful substance designed to thoroughly destroy my motor...

I called the cops on my neighbors for partying the night before finals. Their bass was so loud that it shook my bed from 3 apartments away. The next day my bike was knocked over.  >:(

I feel the same way.  My bike is rarely unattended and if it is, its either in my garage or in my patrolled work parking lot.

But............just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't after me!      ;D

That said I really like that MotoCreations cap.  [thumbsup] I have to quit reading this forum its costing me too much money.  :-\

I've walked out of places to find people fing sitting on my bike! People touching things, pressing buttons on the handle bars, the last thing I need to do is give joe schmo access to my gas tank.

Hey Motocreations.  Any chance of doing that new design with a lock on it?

The one you see above and the newest one that is completely smooth -- no chance of lock integration at all.  Most people have no clue on how to open them though!  [thumbsup]
