Got home from about 10 months on the road. Road my 2002 Vrod and started get slight spray of what appeared to be coolant on right side. Reservoir check confirmed low coolant. I am taking my bike apart today, and inspecting cooling system. The radiator cap won't come off like a normal radiator cap on a car. Am I missing something? I turn it counter clockwise (lefty loosey) and it turns but gets hung up on some black tabsunderneath. I don't want to force it and break something.
Is it possible that a previous owner crimped or bent the metal tabs down for some reason? Is that common?
