| Greg,
I have a tank that has the flat spot on one end to accomodate the flip top gas cap. When I had this tank restored, Mark sent it back to me with a repro/aftermarket police style cap. It fits fine, but when you put it on, it does not turn to a stop point. You have to put it on and center it by turning it about 1/4 turn (fit it onto the tank left and right slots, then turn 1/4 turn left or right - if you turn it 1/2 way, she will come off as you have then reached the slots on the tank neck again). I have since re-installed my flip top gas cap for the vintage look. If you want my police style cap, send me your address and I will send it to you.
Hey Mark,
Have you mailed me the re-chromed flip style gas cap yet?

Hi Michael,
MG Cycle has a fuel tank cap, #4 here:http://www.mgcycle.com/fuel.html Should work on tanks originally equipped with the lever-operated flip cap as well as later twist off type. Ask Gordon or Rick to be sure.
Keep a watch on eBay, Wixom mounts sometimes come up separate from the bags. Cheers,

| Hi, I am new to the site and fairly new to guzzis. I have a 72 Eldo and
am seeking various parts. Might I ask if anyone has any of the following parts: 1) tank and or gas cap. ( Is there something that fits besides the original cap?) 2)wixom bag mounts 3) turn signal switch (Is there a substitute that doesn't look too bad? Originals don't seem to be available.) All responses are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Michael Ittner
