avon fuel cap
Has anyone had the same trouble with the Avon fuel cap?
I’ve cut the holes in the carbon fibre for the fuel filler cap
And when fitting the cap there seem to be too much spring in the cap to turn the key to lock it?
I have even taken the rubber out just to see if that helps, but the key will turn about 30 degrees then you can’t turn it or you could break it?
Has anyone had anything like this will try and get picture to show what I mean

...I think.

i had the same problem. I think i just used a stanley knife to shave off some of the black plastic off of the filler cap so that it could be closer to
the tank and then fuller turn and engage (if that makes sense). Took about 15 seconds.
