    Anyone know where I can find a Red Ilmberger billet gas cap? Diesel Moto apparently stopped stocking these, and EBR does not carry the red version.

    TIA!!

    Yes they do. I have one but my bike isnt venting. EBR says its not the cap so i have to check something else. I dont like my bike shooting fuel out when i have my cap closed.

    Loki, thanks--your bike was the one I was looking at when I decided I "needed" the red Ilmberger... Hope you find the cause for your issue.

    Man I'd be one pissed off person. I've looked at those before but couldn't pull that $170.00 trigger.

    Very lame repsonse from EBR IMO

    Yeah, this is what they said "The stock cap does not vent either. The tank vent is a separate item off to the right of the gas filler area under the airbox cosmetic cover. So you have something wrong with that vent or the hose from it."

    Then i asked some more questions but they are to busy racing to deal with their petty Buell owners...

    That is eff'd up. I do appreciate your honesty about the cap though as I really was considering getting one.

    I had heard the filler tube was smaller and most hated that. Now I hear you have to re-vent your fuel line for it to work correctly? And on top of that EBR has crappy customer support...

    Hang in there Loki maybe you'll get some resolve.
