Read the cap

I've got a couple of these somewhere, from the days when I owned the cooking versions of the bikes that did the business in the Sixties. As fuel caps go, one of the finest. MP
Thanks to David Nimrod on Flickr for the pic.

Seeing those Eastern European riders throw those sewing machine smooth MZs strokers around with their steel tanks and mudguards and fully enclosed chain cases was a joy and i never saw one break down.; 31 July 2013 at 16:04
