Bend the tab down where the cap mounts on the tank slightly, the sealing section of the cap is self aligning, it just needs sufficient pressure and a clean, flat seat to seal properly, if you?re a 120 owner you may need the assistance of a man to open and close it for you, otherwise only ride with 180 owners.

Grant, here in the colonies we often refer to fuel as gasoline  :D
And as far as owning a 120 Laverda well, I'm the happy owner of a 180 and a 120! If yer workin' both sides of the street you maximize yer chances of success  :D

I have the right cap on my 1000 tank. It does fit, but it will NOT seal the tank. If more than 3/4 full and under hard braking, your headstock gets cleaned by petrol...

There is a rubber insert (little tube with a hole and a kind of rubber-gasket-top...) available from Andy Wagner that does the trick. My tank can be filled now to almost full without poring gas out, not even under very hard braking.

costs a bit, works a treat! :-)

not sure if yours is for the 750 or 1000, but on the 1000 at least it works

HTH






I've got a spare one of these. No charge, just postage.  Talking about the anti surge rubber, Can't work out how to highlight stuff on quotes. cheers>Mark
