912 Alternative Radiator Cap

[Dusty]

Thanks for posting as I need a New cap and would rather pay BMW prices than visit the local roTAX department

[Dusty]

A new cap is on order
Even BMW discribe it as an oddball it is for a f650 bike

[Norm]

What year?

[Dusty]

Sorry cant remember the exact year,but must have been early 90's as i remember thinking thats about when the 912 first surfaced

Found another cap you may want to consider. Used by KTM, Husqvarna, and Husaberg bikes. Part #77335016000
KTM bike cap only 18Cdn Warning this is a 1.8 bar cap so your engine could get a little hotter before it opens the cap. The website says your boiling temperature will increase because of the higher pressure.
This cap was easy to get. The BMW cap was $60 cdn and had to be ordered.
1.8 bar = 26PSI
1.1 bar = 16PSI

26 psi is really high. At nearly twice the pressure you might risk blowing off hoses.

Agreed Especially with the 912s reputation for leaking hoses.
