Product Information

Full details

The Apico Alloy Fuel Cap is an essential upgrade for Kawasaki off-road motorcycle owners looking to replace their stock components with a more durable and aesthetically pleasing solution. Engineered for specific KX85, KX250, and KXF 250/450 models, this CNC-machined cap provides a secure, leak-resistant seal and includes a functional breather system to ensure consistent fuel flow. While it offers superior durability compared to standard plastic caps, users should ensure the threading is clean and aligned correctly during installation to avoid cross-threading the fuel tank neck.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this cap fit fuel tanks with different thread pitches?

No, this cap is specifically machined for the thread pitch of the listed Kawasaki models. Do not force it onto incompatible tanks.

Is the breather pipe removable?

Yes, the breather pipe can be detached or replaced if necessary.

Will the aluminium fade over time?

The high-quality anodised finish is designed to be fade-resistant, though it may eventually show signs of wear after prolonged exposure to intense UV light and harsh chemicals.

Does this kit include a replacement fuel tank seal?

The cap is designed to utilize the standard seal configuration for the specified Kawasaki models.

Can I use this on a non-Kawasaki bike?

No, the thread diameter and pitch are specific to the Kawasaki models listed in the compatibility guide.

Troubleshooting

Cap feels difficult to screw on

Back the cap off and restart the threading process to ensure it is perfectly square with the tank neck.

Fuel leaking from the breather pipe

Check the one-way valve for debris or blockage and ensure the hose is securely seated on the cap nozzle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Apico Fuel Cap is straightforward but requires attention to detail. First, ensure the area around your fuel tank opening is completely clean to prevent debris from falling into the tank during the swap. Align the cap carefully with the tank threads, turning it counter-clockwise initially until you feel a 'click' to ensure the threads are properly seated before tightening.

Compatibility

  • Kawasaki KX85 (2014-2026)
  • Kawasaki KX250 (2005-2008)
  • Kawasaki KXF 250/450 (2006-2026)
  • Kawasaki KX 250/450XC (2021-2026)

Care Instructions

Periodically inspect the seal gasket on the underside of the cap to ensure it remains pliable. Clean the one-way valve periodically to ensure it is not clogged with dirt, which could affect fuel tank ventilation.
