Sometimes it is the little things that bug me. The gas cap always seemed backwards. Folding back gets in the way when fueling. So I turned it around. Only issue is the drain hole is now on the upper side of the hole when the bike is on the kickstand but it seems there are two drain holes so it should work once you get the tank level. Much more practical this way.

Just remember to put a rag in the hole when fiddling with the screws. Don't want to drop one in the tank...

Great idea

Do you think it might be the other way to minimize potential splash on the rider? Just wondering why it is the other way since this does seem more convenient.
