Does anyone have a clever way to eliminate the reflection off the gas cap on the windshield? It is very annoying, right in the field of visions. I don't find any tank bibs that cover the cap. Thought about just painting the thing black I,m very picky about the way my girl looks though.

Heritage makes a nice looking bib that covers the fuel chrome.

I had same problem with glare. I went with www.dayontagear.com I got the one @ $45.00 , holds cell, wallet, garage door opener, ect. Magnets hold to tank and will up to 100 MPH. .  ;) Soft leather and looks nice. Easy to remove when leaving bike. Good luck. 

OOPS, just tryed web. did not work. But the Co. is Dayonta Gear.

I got a LARGE leather fanny pak, cut off the strap and inserted computer hard drive magnets (small and very strong) in the corner pockets.  Works well, holds lots and if you have the magnets... you can get a nice LARGE leather fanny pak for $15.00 or under at most bike rallys, flea markets or the like.  It will cover it and be functional.  When you get off the bike, take it with you (I have a loop on one end and hook it to a carabeaner and my belt at times).  If you have multiple bikes, it goes from bike to bike as well.....

Mine looks very similar to this one on daytona gear....

Thanks people! I ordered on of those tank bags from Datonagear. Hope that problem will go away. Got a tip for you I/S riders. Don't forget to plug in fuel sender all the way if you remove your tank to change you filter. : :uglystupid2:
