Hawk 250 gas tank cap

Any one figured out how to make it stop being so loud? Or know a direct replacement gas tank cap that's plastic I am going crazy with the vibration of the metal.

Thanks Tony

a tank bag would probably do the trick.

Remove the tank and install some rubber washers on the mounts. I have used garden hose washers in many applications with very positive results. ACE Hardware will have specific size rubber washers if you need them. If its vibrating touching the frame or something just do some tweaking/bending if you can.
