Default Yaffe tank question
Ok, I just bought a Yaffe stretched tank with dash for my 09 street glide and my question is, do I need to buy the Yaffe pop up gas cap as well or are there others that work just like it does?

I might try that myself.
Did you seal the tank yourself?

I picked up a Danny Gray, butt crack seat for my yaffe tank. Had some quality problems with the first one, but they took care of it and sent another one out asap!
