Where is a cheap Place to get a Monza style gas cap?

Does anyone know what the TPI size of threading is?

I bought mine from bella corse, not cheap, but it fits
great and works great. Comes with some cork
washers for fitting purposes, they seem to work
pretty well.

You can buy them online at various places for about 75-80 dollars - but no adaptor - by the time you factor in the cost of a custom adaptor you may as well get it from bella corse. No proper Brit iron should be without an enots Monza cap.

I definitely agree! If someone paid me $500 to put the stocker back on and keep it on I wouldn't do it :razz: Looks ***** good not to mention how easy it is to open the cap.

hate to spoil the monza party, but I think it sticks up a little high for the tank. It looks right on a less rounded tank, but on the thruxtons tank it juts out too much. I am in search for a lower profile monza cap, even tried a few old school jap caps from my local brit iron recyclers.

cheers, jason

You guys who already have one. Was there any size listings on the package itself? Or was the original manufacturer's information on the package? :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: :-D :-D

Jeremy Kieler :-D :hammer: :hammer:

Can Anyone post pics of what the Monza gas cap kit looks like off the bike, uninstalled? Would be really nice to see, maybe I can fabricate something.
