Read the cap

I've got a couple of these somewhere, from the days when I owned the cooking versions of the bikes that did the business in the Sixties. As fuel caps go, one of the finest. MP
Thanks to David Nimrod on Flickr for the pic.

I've been in love with those ISDT MZs since first seeing them at the Welsh 2 Day in the early 70s. Seeing those Eastern European riders throw those sewing machine smooth MZs strokers around with their steel tanks and mudguards and fully enclosed chain cases was a joy and i never saw one break down.

Got one MZ ets125, 1975-76-ish with sucha gascap, about the coolest part on the bike though! Will make something fun out of it someday.

I had a TS150 many years ago with that fuel cap on it. Mine had the RACs emergency number delicately painted onto it.....

Looks great Olle, good work. I like that Stadium Project 7 helmet you've got, too.
