    Hello to everyone. I'm rolling my bikes out of long term storage and slowly bringing things up to speed. About 12 years worth of storage, long boring story. So far so good, only minor things to fix or replace but the VFR has some very light surface rust in the tank, soaking it now and debating whether to Kreem it or not. Still cleaning a bit and a total fluid change is next. Does anyone have a source for the rubber seal on the gas tank cap? Honda doesn't list it separate
    from the cap. Oh, the old/new in the subject is because the bike only has about 1.5k on the clock :)

    Welcome to the forums :welcome:
    That's incredible, being in storage for 12 years and only 1.5k on it. Definitely a new-old bike!
    Keep us updated. What colour?

    Thanks, it's a red one, only color available at the time I bought it. All the bikes in the sig line were in storage, the KLR is up and flying.
