Keyless Fuel tank cap bling

[commandodave]

I was searching Ebay for a little bling for my RC 390 when I came across this:

Orange Laser Fuel Gas Tank Keyless Cap for KTM RC 200 390 | eBay

Does anybody have any experience with these, not necessarily this vendor (picked at random among several suppliers all selling what appears to be the same item.)

I am not 100% sure how it operates based on the pictures and comparing them to the present OEM fuel cap setup. Any comments?

I had to grind a little to get it to fit and the o-ring fell off so the seal is questionable, but yes, they kind of work. I just wanted cheap and keyless for my race bike but I don't know that I'd recommend it for everyday use; the stock one is probably a more practical answer.

I have the Driven keyless gas cap which works great, got it from Hardracing.

I've bought a bunch of stuff from China on eBay lately. The quality of most of it has surprised me. I think I paid about $5 for a set of spools, I work in a machine shop with access to all the equipment and I can't make them for that. The shipping is cheap or free and usually takes a week or so.

Got pix?

I've been waiting for Slingshot Racing's flush version; it works like the Accossato one I had on the 675 and the one on the Buell. Those both sealed fine; better than the Oberon one on the FJR.

Yeah, I got a gas cap problem.

check out hardracing.com for info on the driven keyless gas cap. They are one of our forum sponsors and great to deal with.

Thanks for cluing me in. I just wanted flash for the street, not function for racing. The cheap Chinese knockoffs looked good with the anodized orange aluminium. I think I will pass on these.

The Vortex V3 Cap...if they ever release it for RC390, would be my first choice, The Driven caps are nice but over priced IMHO.
