It may look a bit strange, but this is the way my 2 piece new gas cap looks. Billet aluminum machined.

Yes, Kevin

The rest of OEM parts remained stock:

Only the outer parts differ

This is the dwg, if anyone is interested - a few changes may have been made in this prototype dwg during assembly, but very few.

Kevin, I'm very anxious to ride it, but lately I haven't got much time to work on the few missing items. Hope to finish it within one year; the new tires I put some years ago are getting old! and I still didn't ride it.
