The gas cap I'm thinking about replacing them with a fabricated brass hydrant cap. But I don't want to loose the gauge. We'll see what answer I can come up with.

Fire hydrant cap is a great idea! I wonder if I could modify that into a large artillery shell looking gas cap? Hmmmmmm, ideas, ideas.

That is my plan, I installed the combo gauge and know just figuring what to do with the factory gauge.

Aren't you going to glue the stock gas cap into the hydrant cap? Just do the same to the gauge.

Be sure to not screw up the venting feature of the stock cap (it has to breathe into the tank but not out) or the bike won't run.
