Who makes the tank bib that covers the gas cap? I seem to be getting way to much glare in the windshield of my I/S lately. Not bad on a short trip but after several hours it gets old. :)

I have an Iron Horse but it doesn't cover the chrome gas cap. I don't know if one like that is made, have you seen one before?

My only complaint is the tank bib has stretched out but the gas cap cover hasn't...so the gas cap cover doesn't cover the front of the cap.  I don't see it in my shield though.  (You can't see it in this picture.)

get yourself a small joe rocket tank bag, not very expensive and very handy for keys and glasses and such.

not as stylish but works very well and I haven't gotten any scratches from it

I love my Heritage bib.  No complaints at all.

I had the same problem on my Tourer, I could not stand the glare on late evening rides when the sun was lower. FIX. Daytona Grear sell a tank bag for $45.00 that covers only the gas cap. I love it, holds cell, wallet, opener, ECT. Stays on @ 100 MPH. I don`t know about any higher. :-\ I will try to post the # if I can find. :-[
