FAQs

What material is the Apico Alloy Fuel Cap made from?

The fuel cap is CNC machined from 6061 T6 aluminum.

Does this fuel cap fit my 2008 Honda CR125?

No, this specific fuel cap is designed for Honda CR 125 models from 1996-2007. Please check the compatibility list for other model years.

What does the one-way valve do?

The one-way valve helps prevent fuel from spilling out of the tank during aggressive riding or if the bike is dropped, while still allowing the tank to vent.

Do I need to modify my fuel tank to install this cap?

No, this is designed as a direct replacement for the stock fuel cap and requires no modifications.

How do I clean the anodised finish?

Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the finish.

What is included with the fuel cap?

The Apico Alloy Fuel Cap comes with the cap itself, a breather pipe, and a one-way valve.

Troubleshooting

Fuel cap is difficult to screw on or off.

Ensure the fuel tank threads are clean and free of debris. Check that you are using the correct cap for your specific Honda CR model. Do not force the cap; ensure it is threading smoothly.

Fuel leakage from the cap area.

Verify that the fuel cap is fully tightened. Inspect the seal or O-ring (if applicable on the tank side) for damage or wear. Ensure the one-way valve is functioning correctly and not stuck open.

Engine performance issues possibly related to venting.

Check that the breather pipe is not kinked, blocked, or disconnected. Ensure the one-way valve is clean and allowing air to pass through when necessary.
