retractable gas cap

I noticed that there was a bit of scuffing in the paint around the gas cap, probably due to being brushed by my gloves when I gas up. The paint around the filler cap is black and the light scuffing was easy to see.
Maybe I'm too fussy, but not wanting it to get any worse, I bought one of these retractable gas caps from New Bonneville.
It works just as shown in this video and works well. I also like the low profile.
BTW, I have no association with NB except as a satisfied customer.

I like that! Great find. I am going to purchase one. Thanks.

I actually watched the clip twice trying to see any advantages apart from the improved aesthetics, but now that I read your post I can totally see the benefit.
Good find.

That is very nice and it does look great

 

[CarlS]

Dave, it should work on your Speedmaster

 

[DaveM]

Yes it would fit right in and look great, thinking about it right now

I see that and it is not cheap my side with the exchange rate as it is now

Yes, exchange rates and shipping (also maybe import duties) often put things out of a sensible purchase range.

Dave, do you want me to purchase it for you and mail it to you? I can wrap it as birthday present.

Dave needs to decide on Chrome or Black and do we need a fundraiser to get him a gas cap???

 

[CarlS]

I would think the chrome looks better on his Speedmaster.

Agree. Replace chrome with chrome.

Thanks Carl but not to worry right now as presents don't last long this time of year going through customs and it would end up on some guys desk as a paper weight

10-4 That is a shame.
