    The Hotmatch caps have HOTMATCH and Pat pending milled into the bottom of the cap. MM caps are blank. Both are made out of steel. One wont fit the other because of the depth of the threads. The “new” caps are aluminum and will definetely fit the MM bungs and may fit the HM bungs (Ive never tried one. Most of the HM guys who have replaced caps have gone directly to HM.) So… If you want to get one and try it, if It dosnt work Ill give you a full refund (you pay the shipping back.)

    If it used to work, theres something in the bung or cap threads. Given the cost of these caps, Ive heard some crazy stories about caps being stolen and switched etc. Youre not in Texas by any chance are you?

    Nope, not in Texas, Virginia. When I first bought the bike new, I had the opposite problem-operator error no doubt. The cap would suddenly loosen up; bang me in the chest, and give me a face full of gas. Ill try the dental pick-and let you know. If it doesnt work, Ill probably go for the new cap.
