I thought about painting mine...but decided to go with part number 61300585 instead. I dig how it looks even if it cost 20 bucks.
I've looking around for time without success, so first I've try to made with DLC coating (but with poor result) so I painted mine like picture

Looks Good
@Marco_dalea do you know where can I find the fuel gauge and tachometer in the image you attached?
Hi Fsoria

those Tachometer and Fuel Gauge are not plug&play, need work for place them.
look my previous post here:
XG 750 my mods
my Wet Girl...

I bought fuel gauge (and Tachometer) here:

fuel level gauge

then made the fuel sensor from scratch, welded stainless steel tube to the tank and design electronic circuit and board.
For the float I disassembled one from a nautical tank.
However a simple solution is the one proposed by Amirbp here:
Fuel gauge
or here from Paul Dunwell
Fuel gauge

Tachometer need an electronic interface for the XG750 you can see circuit in my post.
Hope this can help...

I searched for a black gas cap for my 750A, no luck. (The cap doesn't
have the same type of threads some gas caps have). So, I ended up painting it, using a Hi-Temp silicone black spray paint. Worked Ok...

Have you got a link to that gas cap? I'm actually looking for a non-locking chrome one.
This is the ebay item number
124491962921
The top can be removed but the mechanism works great so maybe you can chrome plate it

The link that @Dani posted a couple of years ago is now dead. The search for seller "dklamotor" doesn't bring up anything about gas caps.

There is no keyhole in the gas caps that were available on eBay, so no, they weren't locking caps.
