DescriptionThe whole story▼

Long trips on remote roads are what the DesertX was built for, and at a lonely petrol station a key-free fuel cap is simply convenient. Gilles' FCAP2 opens with a lift of its lever and a turn. Wipe away dust and sand before opening it, as you would with any fuel cap.

Key Features

  • Anodised; black or with a red lever (Black/Red)
  • 240 g, according to Gilles
  • Spare parts available from Gilles
  • For road and track use, according to Gilles
  • Lift the handle, turn, lift the cap off: no key or tool needed
  • No registration required, according to Gilles

1X to 4X

Gilles lists the DesertX of 2022 to 2025. The newer DesertX with the 890 cc engine is not named for this cap.

Road Approval

Gilles' fitment list marks the FCAP2 as not requiring registration on the Ducati DESERT X: no inspection and no entry in the vehicle documents.

Scope of Delivery

The FCAP2 cap FCAP2-B006 for this model, colour as selected (FCAP2-B006-B black or FCAP2-B006-BR black/red). No tool is needed to operate it, and the original cap can be kept for later.

Fitting

The FCAP2 replaces the original filler cap. Fit it as the Gilles instructions describe, with a low fuel level, outdoors or in a well-ventilated room and away from any ignition source. Keep the tank opening covered while the caps are exchanged, tighten the screws evenly, then open and close the cap several times before the first refuel.
