May be of interest ( petrol cap seal ) for early GS paralever owners

Kenny · Nov 2, 2016

Have found a guy who is willing to make the rubber petrol cap seal on early paralever GS's and GSPD :thumb2

The usual mail order suppliers don't stock them ( gave up on my local BMW stealership ) so it was a case of requesting one from Germany for £15

or trying an alternative.
As soon as he get's back to me ( should be next week ) I'll let you know. :thumb2

Okay...this seal is a must to keep in your 'parts department' if you own a small fairing R80 or R100GS paralever or any PD version. Seal is an excellent fit and try as I may, couldn't locate any in GB !!
These seals will be quite cheap but superb quality ( compared to £15 from Germany ) so give Billy a call or email him - although they are now on his Ebay site http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/2017...=9046715&device=c&campaignid=207297426&crdt=0

Posting in here as item is quite unique and as I say, non of our usual UK sites sell them.

Forgive my stupidity, but do these fit the G/S ?

Just did a quick measurement of the tank caps of a 100GS and an 80 g/sPD, gasket ID is 38mm for both and OD approx. 58mm so they'll fit both no worries.

Mine turned up today - good gear. Quick delivery even to the arse end of the earth

You don't realise how buggered your old ones are until you replace them.

I bought one too. I haven't fitted it yet.

I remember it being an 'advisory' on the MOT a couple of years back - all squeaky-clean now
