I have an 86 550ef and Icannot remove the gas cap. The style is similar to the Early GSXR's. I can turn the key but the cap itself doesnt turn. Can anyone offer any ideas as to what I need to do to get it to come off??

You have to turn the peice that flips up after you unlock it. -
yes I know that, but the problem is with the flap up it still doesnt turn. Its almost like the two tabs arent turning when you turn the key cylinder. Even putting two screwdrivers under to lift it doesnt help. I've been sraying it with Releasall in hopes it is just rusted up but still can't get it off.Comment

Push the cap in hard and try and wiggle it side to side.Comment

Hmmmmmm.......looked at my 85 750EF that has a similar cap.Really I'm at a loss.Let the penetrating oil sit and work some more?May take more than one application to work.Hope someone else has other things you could try.Comment

I will give it all a try. At this point I'm debating if drilling out the lock barrel and using a screwdriver to turn the inner tabs. Thanks for your help.Comment
