Good keyless gas cap?

What's a good keyless gas cap for the pregen? My stock one is stuck at the moment and I've kind wanted a keyless one for a while anyway.

I don't mean to sidetrack the thread, but I took mine apart and cleaned it up, and lubed it a little, and now it works like new. I'd rather not make it easy for someone to mess with my fuel supply to get a laugh out of his friends.

Gasoline resistant grease: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalo...?clickkey=5414

A 5 oz. tube is a lifetime supply, and is very useful on other things like petcock parts and bowl gaskets, too. Just use very little of it, since a blob that gets into the fuel system won't dissolve and could block a jet. Alcohol gets it off your hands.

A little lock graphite squirted into the keyhole usually smooths up the lock itself quickly.

We have that one, or one very similar (https://www.amazon.com/Kawasaki-Blac.../dp/B008SD0GW8) , on our Ninja Beater. It has turned from black to a bronze color in about a year, but has worked fine.
