    Greenboy is making some billet gas caps for the tri zinger soon. In the meantime,, it's kinda ghetto fabulous but a plastic gas can cap works just fine.

    I just bought mine off of eBay for like $28. Crazy, but I needed it.

    I'll be looking for one of those billet caps.

    My jerry jug cap threads on and works perfect, I've over wheelied it and had it run away a few times without leaking a drop. You do need the stock inner cap pcs (white) to go on the tank before the yellow gas stop top then twist on the black part.

    It would be cool to see other alternatives to the stock cap. Mine works good and cost me nothing.
