Sold / Found / Inactive - Gas cap for Standard 74-79 fuel tank

[Kevin Werner]

I would like to acquire a gas cap for a 74-79 fuel tank. I have a functional cap but it is well weathered and pitted. Pics of what you have?

You may need to be more specific on the range of years ?
Seems to me 76 or 77 up is different than the 74 up to that change.

Yes ‘76 up was different.

They frequently lie, caveat emptor

Yeah they just steal the info from partzilla or similar? I bought and used one, (it's been more than 5 years) correct for 76-79 standard tanks.
Cheap is my description of quality, weight of material, fit and finish of the one I bought.

I think my son @Ben1 has what I need. I do have an old, functional but well pitted place holder. Hell, if I am careful with my copious posted picture of this bike on this sight no one would ever know.
