Slowpoke & Proud of It!
Howdy All!
So I got the most expensive tank of guess in a real long time. Not because of the gas prices but because of the damage I did to my 2002 R1150RT fuel filler cap. What happened was I accidentally twisted the handle of the gas nozzle against the filler cap and broke it off. I sheared the piece of metal it is hinged on.
So I talked with Bill (BE in IN) and he gave me some pointers on how I might be able to fix it. So then I went to my Clymer's manual to get an idea of what the process of replacing it would be. Unfortunately there is not really an answer on how to replace the gas filler cap.
So I went off the Max BMW's part fiche (http://www.maxbmwmotorcycles.com/fiche/MainDiagrams.asp?mospid=47981) and think that it is Diagram #16_0449. But it does not show the hinge arm/pivot piece.
So has anyone else had to do this repair and can give me pointers?
Thanks.
