DescriptionThe whole story▼
Engineered in Italy to the exacting standards LighTech is renowned for, the TRN226 is a CNC-machined aluminium fuel cap that brings genuine race-derived engineering to the Yamaha YZF-R3. Developed specifically for the 2015 to 2026 model years, it pairs a black anodised exterior with a colour-accented inner face — a functional upgrade that never compromises on safety or reliability.
Key Features
- Push and Pull quick-release mechanism allows the cap to be removed and refitted with a single, fluid motion — no tools, no fumbling at the pump or in the pit lane.
- CNC-machined from high-grade aluminium for a hard-wearing, corrosion-resistant finish that outlasts OEM plastic caps.
- Black anodised outer surface with a colour-accented inner ring available in red, blue, gold, silver, or black — choose the combination that suits your build.
- Supplied with mounting bolts and a replacement seal, ensuring a safe, leak-free fit straight out of the box.
- 100% Made in Italy — manufactured under LighTech's rigorous quality controls for confidence on road and track alike.
Italian Craftsmanship, Race-Proven Design
LighTech has built its reputation supplying parts to professional race teams across Europe, and the TRN226 reflects that heritage. Every cap is machined from a single billet of aluminium rather than cast, giving it superior dimensional accuracy and a surface finish that holds its anodised colour under prolonged UV exposure and repeated fuel contact. The push-and-pull latch engages with a positive, reassuring click and releases cleanly without the thread-wear risk associated with conventional screw caps used daily.
Safety and Sealing
The included replacement seal is sized precisely for the TRN226 housing, maintaining a fuel-tight closure that meets the demands of both road use and circuit regulations. The secure latching mechanism prevents accidental opening under vibration, making this cap as dependable as it is visually striking. Replacing the cap seal periodically is straightforward — the seal is a standard included item and LighTech spares are widely stocked.
Fitment and Compatibility
The LighTech TRN226 is a direct, bolt-on replacement designed exclusively for the following:
- Yamaha YZF-R3 — all variants, model years 2015 through 2026
