    Locking the Gas filler

    I have a Ranger 375V and it stays outside with a boat cover on it. I live in a pretty decent neighborhood but every now and then the "Tweaker Siphon Patrol" comes out to inspect all gas operated vehicles while we sleep . Has anyone come up with a way to lock the standard screw on filler caps on there boat? Do they make a locking version?

    What about caps for the remote oil fill ? My Z9 has remote fill but im bypassing it id rather pour straight in so I can watch the tank fill up.

    Mine also has a remote oil fill. Just open the back deck and watch it fill is what I do. pouring it straight in leaves a mess 9 out of 10 times.

    If you check, you;ll probably find you could use the same cap

    Very true. That could be a beast to clean up.
