Since I do not like the OEM fuel cap (because of its weight and design), I checked some non-ROC high quality aftermarket products both for the Tri and the SL. Actually the fuel tanks are identical between those bikes.
During 25 years of riding I never had any problem with fuel caps that cannot be locked. So this is not of any concern to me.
Finally the race was between Ducabike and Evotech. Rizoma was too unpratical, although design is good.
Ducabike is very clean/minimalistic in design, it uses the OEM plastic ring below with the vent valve. It needs a CF made key to open. That's what I found to be very unpratical.
Evotech is heavier, very nicely milled out from a solid piece of aluminium, has a very pratical closing mechanism, and its row-milled design fits to my mirror block-off plates and the tail tidy that is going to be installed this week.
