Gaslock J164 Motorcycle Radiator Caps
Noted for its high-tech precision engineering, advanced design and quality materials, German manufacturer Gaslock ' s new motorcycle radiator cap offers a unique and stylish look for radiator equipped water-cooled models. They are easy to handle and install with a unique stainless-steel screen and beautiful UV resistant, fade free red anodized ring. Fitted with replaceable seals, they will fit a vast array of most water-cooled motorcycles. Designed to open and relieve high temperature pressures at 20 psi or 1.4 bar, coolant escapes into a small holding tank. Once the coolant temperature reduces, a vacuum is created, and the coolant returns into the cooling system. At 20 psi( 1.4 bar), the coolant is allowed to maintain a higher boiling point temperature- due to higher pressures. This is a matter of physics. It is critical to control the pressure in order to ensure the integrity of the coolant system. These specifications meet SAE J164 standards. Designed and tested extensively over thousands of cycles, each new cap is tested after assembly before shipping, to ensure proper function and given a laser etched date code. In addition to its standard product range, Gaslock can provide capabilities for specific designs for your needs. It can offer several different processes- including laser etch, CNC machining, anodizing and paint – and offer extensive laser etched and electroformed design options and details. The company is open to hearing from customers to discuss preferences and needs in order to develop a unique radiator or gas cap to your specific design. An OE manufacturer for select motorcycle brands, Gaslock has been in business for close to 30 years. The company ' s capabilities involve several different products for many different industries. " These gas caps require a high level of integrity which speaks to the versatility of our capabilities and extent of our engineering experience."

Fireblade), depends on the BSLi-01 ' s lightweight construction and consistent performance. " Meanwhile, Dafy-RAC41-Honda, a team in the Superstock category and runner-up in the 2024 FIM Endurance World Cup, relies on the same advanced lithium technology. This shared confidence underscores the BSLi-01 ' s essential role in delivering the durability, power, and endurance necessary to excel in the gruelling world of endurance racing." The BSLi-01 is a high-performance LiFePO4( Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery engineered to meet the extreme demands of motorsport. With 12.8 V, 2 Ah capacity, and a 140 A Cold Cranking Amps( CCA)
rating, it is said to deliver " consistent starting power and energy output in the harshest conditions." The ultra-lightweight design( just 0.42 kg) represents a weight reduction of up to 70 % over traditional lead-acid batteries – " offering a tangible performance edge through improved handling and acceleration." Built with a rugged, waterproof casing, the BSLi-01 features multi-position mounting and an integrated state of charge indicator. Its long service life( over 2,000 cycles), quick charge capability, and low selfdischarge rate make it a smart, sustainable alternative to traditional batteries, on and off track
