How about no text? Did some bikes come with plain caps?
Around the periphery from 12 o'clock- CASTROL XL -ESSOLUBE 40 -DOUBLE SHELL - MOTORINE M - MOBILOIL BB. In the centre -
FOR WINTER
OIL
SEE HANDBOOK.
Some of the early caps had a spelling mistake i.e. FOR WINTFR OIL SEE HANDBOOK.
I think Series D had plaincaps.
FOR WINTER
OIL
SEE HANDBOOK.

So does this wording on a cap I have, mean......
CASTROL GRAND PRIX -ESSOLUBE RACER -GOLDEN SHELL - MOTORINE 'B' DELUX - MOBILOIL 'D'. In the centre - FOR WINTER OIL SEE HANDBOOK.
..... it's a Lightning or Grey Flash cap!!!
