Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This fuel cap is designed for 1983 and later model motorcycles equipped with screw-in style fuel caps. For tanks manufactured later than 1996, you will need to reuse your stock gas cap gasket during installation.
Setup:
- Ensure your fuel tank is cool and the motorcycle is on a stable, level surface.
- Unscrew and remove the stock fuel cap.
- If applicable, carefully remove the stock gasket from your old cap and transfer it to the new Kuryakyn cap, ensuring a proper seal. For tanks later than '96, this step is crucial.
- Screw the Kuryakyn Flush-Mount Fuel Cap into the fuel tank opening until snug. Do not overtighten.
- Test the cap by opening and closing it with the key to ensure smooth operation.
Care: Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes that can scratch the chrome. Periodically check the gasket for wear and replace if necessary to maintain a proper seal.
