filler cap? which one should I buy?

Hi there,

I need a new filler cap and contact set for my ZB, the original one is fully broken. I saw some sets from skyteam or PBR for sale but don't know if that is ok.

Any advice would be very usefull

Do you just need the cap or the whole lock set?
Motoshop Z (Dan & Brad) got me the chrome version of the ZB gascap. It is very nice and comes with 2 Honda keys.

Then I should just mail Dan & Brad.. see what they can do for me... Need the complete set, filler cap & contactset and all on the same key.

Original honda sets aren't available anymore, or am I wrong?

Yes they are available.
There are only a few lock sets left for the ZB left. Get hold of Dan and see if he can get you one from American Honda. Here is a pic of the chrome gas cap I got off Dan & Brad @ MotoshopZ. Honda50.com Motoshop Z, LLC Part Ordering Procedures and Information

The chrome cap is nice but not my style. I got my new lock set from honda back in the beginning of 2009. If you can find a Monkey R tank and lock set for a reasonable price that is the way to go. Such a cool looking gas cap/tank.

I dont think a Monkey R gas cap will work on the ZB tank.

NOS monkey R tanks are north of $600 when you can find them.

NOS ZB50 tanks are more then Monkey R tanks when you can find them.

For the original poster, if you need a complete lock set, order the whole assembly from American Honda before all the stock is gone.

If US Honda is out of stock, I may have sources elsewhere, but American Honda will be cheaper and better place to start. Contact your Honda dealer of choice.

I'm poor folk, NOS is out of my vocabulary. You should know this, I haven't been bugging you in a couple months now.

The cap and tank will. The tanks do not fit as nice as the Honda original ZB tank. I have a Skyteam cap and key.It is China chrome.
