They also used that cap part number 51049-1060 as KDXGarage listed on the 84-85 Tecate 3 2 stroke trike ATV, part # 51049-4002 also fits but unfortunately discontinued also, possibly one of the ATVs close to that year may also use a cap that thread size but was a slightly different design.

Is 64mm the measurement you gave the thread size? I think the 83-88 KDX had a bigger filler neck, possibly that model might fit??
