The last 2 BMW's I had, I replaced the cheap plastic oil filler caps with nice metal chrome ones. I also have a Suzuki TU250X, which is a fun little bike. I replaced the plastic oil filler cap with a good metal one made for a big Suzuki cruiser. Much higher quality.
Do any of you know of a good metal replacement oil filler cap for the CB1100? It's not a big deal but it would be nice.
Thanks!

Thanks for the info. I found the site. There are three different caps, two of which are gold and red.

I make a couple of cool 6061 aluminum ones in various finishes to fit Kawasakis.
Just need to have the collective decide what looks best on the
CB 1100 and I would run some IF there is any interest.
(They are right around $25.00)

ZRXmano1, I would be good for two. They look great. I didn't care for the colored ones. Your aluminum looks great.

Out of the choices shown, I'd get one in clear anodized.

Yep I am a big fan of clear anodizing...
It does not fade like the colors do and does not require polishing like bare...
(Unless of course that's your thing!....lol)
