The blue cap is pretty close to the blue highlights on the bike....

No. Haven't had any issues. I normally get off the bike when I fuel so no chance of cap slipping off the bike and marring the finish.
 
My fill process would change if I can't see the fuel level in the tank as I am filling. Can you see the fuel level as you fill or is the diameter of the hole too small? This is one of the things that has kept me from buying an aftermarket fuel cap. I hate the silver factory cap, but I don't like the idea of a smaller hole (how often do you ever hear that?), a cap you have to set somewhere or risk it falling, and the ability for a passer-by to open the tank and put something unwanted into it if I take my bike to work and it is sitting out in a parking lot all day.

You can hear it filling to the top, at least I do and I have a pair of 2.5gal cans at home so I don't have to spend more time at night topping off. Never worry about a passer-by messing with my bike since I park my bike close to the entrance at my work and 24hr security there.
 
So sweet. I'm jealous. I wish there were better options for the hyper 821/939. Pretty much the only decent one is the Driven Halo and it's just basic.
