Nihilo Concepts has a new tool that makes it easier to remove the radiator cap from a 2023 KTM, Husqvarna or GasGas bike.
The 2023 KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas bikes require that the cap be pushed down and turned at the same time for removal, making it harder to get a good grip on the cap in the tight space. Nihilo’s tool attaches to 1/4-inch drive, a ratchet, a T wrench or screwdriver handle to more easily access the cap and twist it off.

Here’s what Nihilo Concepts says in its press release about its Radiator Cap Removal Tool…
We all know how tricky it can be to remove some radiator caps on modern off-road motorcycles. Steam can spray out, causing burns, and most of the time, you can’t even get your hand on it to begin with. On the new 2023 KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas bikes, the cap is tough to get off because you need to push down and turn at the same time, and there is no room for your hand to get in there and grip it. As a result, we have received tons of requests for a tool that can make it easier to remove the caps.
Nihilo Concepts, the number-one innovator in the motorcycle industry, has come up with a solution that will eliminate any more difficulty.
Introducing the Nihilo Concepts Radiator Cap removal tools. Nihilo developed two versions, one is designed to work on the 2023 KTM, Husqvarna, and Gas Gas dirt bikes, and the other fits a standard wing-style radiator cap found on most bikes. Both tools accept a 1/4-inch drive, ratchet, T wrench or screwdriver handle and make removal a snap. No more scraping your knuckles trying to get in and twist off the cap. In addition, the Nihilo tool keeps your hands away from the hot steam, so opening the cap even when hot is no longer a problem.
It’s always a good habit to remove your cap when you start your bike to ensure water is circulating and fluid is topped off. The Nihilo tool will make that practice easy so you can make it a part of your pre-flight checklist.
The new Nihilo Radiator cap removal tool is a must-have for every toolbox. Pick one up today!
