Question: slingshot gas cap
So i bought a slingshot racing gold colour gas cap from slingshot cause a while ago my oem one got caught and thought i was gonna wreck it to get it open.
BUT my boys at the suzuki dealership (yes, suzuki) manage to help me fix it. But i still want to get it on cause of the design. Thing is tho i drive in rain and don't have a covered parking space. Do you guys think its waterproof if used on a longterm basis?

As long as you tighten it enough and has the seal, you'll be fine.

I haven't had any problems with mine. Like Cuong said, it does seal. It has a rubber o ring on the cap.
