OK - here goes my stupid question of the night. Talking gas caps here, if I was wanting to change my current gas cap on my bike ('07 Nightster). Which type of cap would I want to go with - vented or non-vented, and why one over the other? Go ahead slam me now, I don't have thin skin. I know some might think this is a stupid question, but what the heck I'll ask anyways cause I'm not sure.

Vented- Don't worry I had to ask to.

 

So did I..

NYTSTR, be very cautious if you are replacing your cap with an aftermarket unit. The '07-up (not sure about before that) have a "rod" (for lack of a better term) inside the filler neck, and a lot of the vented caps won't clear it. Best advice I can give you is to call whomever it is you are buying from and ask them SPECIFICALLY if it will fit your year and model. It'll save you some time & expense.

 

I got my lasy a new gas cap at the dealer....no questions asked it fit perfectly.
