    2001 w900 c15 6nz. got a simple question about radiator cap. When putting the cap back on is it supposed to be twisted until it stops or is the tab on the cap ____suppose to be under the tab with the groove in it on the neck? the neck on my radiator has a tab on it with a v or groove in it.
    /\

    kinda looks like that above

    make sure the tab on cap is under the tab on water neck. this way the spring tension relief works as it should.
