  • Here's a detailed video about the problematic fuel cap rubber of the Intereceptor650 and Continental GT650 and it's long term solution. Thanks to Road power Customs, I no longer have to replace all 3 locks on the motorcycle, that are Fuel Cap, Side panel and the Handle-lock/ Ignition.

    P.s. The video is smudgy because of the terrible pollution around New Delhi at the moment. Apologies for that.

    I ended up purchasing the same product for mine.
    I currently have some choking left due to water getting in the tank because of the 'one time' leaving it in rain (Its reduced alot but not fully recovered yet). Do you have any recommendation or reference video on how to get it out? I know taking it to the showroom will have them telling me that I will need to replace a couple of parts for no reason and so will save that as the last resource.

    • @SrinivasGanesh
      @SrinivasGanesh  11 місяців тому +2

      I'm glad that you found this channel and found this video useful.
      To get the remaining water out, you will have to take it to an experienced mechanic who will take out your tank, drain the fuel from it, and then remove the fuel pump. Clean them both and put them back together. It is definitely a tedious process but on the upside, you only have to do this once.
      Thank you for watching the video. I wish you good luck!

      @SrinivasGanesh  Рік тому +1

      yeah, one should avoid parking and riding in the rain. If you know that it is about to rain then better to cover it up. much better, cheaper and easier to avoid than to buy a replacement. The high quality rubber is there to prevent it from being damaged due to dust and other elements. It should be fine in rain. But still avoid parking or riding in rain.

    Have a doubt, won’t RE service do the same by replacing the rubber with a new one 🤓

    • @SrinivasGanesh
      @SrinivasGanesh  Рік тому +1

      Yes they will replace it, but what they do is a bit different. They Change the petrol tank cap lock, side panel lock and the ignition lock, since all three are opened by the same key. And they might take 2 weeks or longer to replace it. So if you are going on a vacation for that long, then go ahead give it to RE service center. 😉 or just replace the rubber cap yourself. Which is what I did. 🤓
