It a a carbon fibre tank.
The cap is plug and play.
The cap manufacturer is engraved on the plug, I got it off of e-bay some time ago can't remember how much I paid.

Here's another pic

You show a lot of understated attitude with all that CF and yet just showing off a little. I'm thinking "class"  [thumbsup] (not totally convinced on the seat flames though?)

We can order spare caps in silver and black with no writing.

FWIW, that cap's "plug" or pull-out is just like the "Harris" brand ones. I recall seeing the TWM writing under the Harris lid, so the Harris ones are probably made for them by TWM. Really cool design; much nicer than the vortex ones that screw together.

Agree with you on that.  I think continuing the checkerboard theme on the seat would have looked cool.
