I have just checked mine and had a wrestle with it.
Interestingly Kawasaki do not even mention a torque figure for either filler cap, they just say finger tight.

Mmmmmm...........But who's finger ?  :whistling:

I changed mine for the same cnc aftermarket one that is used for the engine oil £20 for a pair .

It is worth putting a Projekt D filler cap on as a replacement when you've finally got the bugger out....looks better too

Lots on fleabay for about £10 free postage and lots of bling colours , and if you don't like the colour after a while use the oven cleaner trick to return it to natural aluminium and polish it its what I do .

Just had a look, and the final drive filler cap from my 1984 Z1100 fits the GTR. Only difference is it has an external 'rib' rather than the slot which makes for easier removal. My spare final drive is now wearing the one from the GTR.

As it is the same size but different part number to the engine filler cap, just about any old school Kawasaki oil filler cap would fit the GTR final drive.
