Fuel cap hinge pin

Post by PaulD738 »

As the title has anyone got the fuel cap hinge pin to fit the flip up fuel cap? It’s the same one fitted to the 550/750 & 500 Suzuki’s.
Had my cap chromed and I’ve mislaid the hinge pin :oops:
I’ve put a split pin in it till I can source one
Thanks in advance.
