That's why I like Binky's idea... You could probably rig the cap to open an have a small storage place... (stuff a beanie in there, to cover yer' helmet hair)... ...

The ridge comes up about 1/8 - 3/16 of an inch I believe.

Re: speedo resiting Reply #9 - 02/06/14 at 11:20:49 Well,, a ridge make a flush cover pretty labor intensive, SAFELY removing the ridge & welding the tank back & filling the hole would be a big project,,The solution shown above is really nice & not even close to the hassle of trying to make it flush,
