With gas prices rising fast, I had someone siphon the gas out of the tank of my 2014 R3T while I was at work. The bike is parked in the parking area of a strip center so there is no telling who did it. Fortunately for me, there was enough left to get to a nearby gas station. Does anyone know of a source for a locking gas cap?
Those who refuse to work or participate will always make it rough for those who play by the rules. Here in Cali they are parking in gas stations and stealing 500 gallons a pop. They break the lock off of the underground holding tanks and siphon into a tank in the van or truck parked over the holding tanks. So many POS and so little prosecution. If caught they will get a stern talking to maybe bed without dessert. Sorry just rambling and wish I could help. Lots of aftermarket products out there though.

Thank you Ishrub. It appears the Triumph part is no longer being made. Multiple sites indicate it is no longer available. I have emailed the manufacturer of the after market one since it appears they do not ship to the U.S. Depending on what they say, maybe one of our English brothers would be able to order it and ship it to me? PM me if anyone is interested and we will work out the details. Thank you.

YOU ARE THE MAN! Thank you Ishrub! I ordered the one from britishbikebits.. It should arrive between March 24th and April 7th. I will be using my V-Strom 650 for work until the gas cap gets here. It has a locking gas cap. I was just glad that whoever siphoned the gas did not throw away the gas cap. They put it back properly. A polite thief! I am grateful.
