16 Ultra..is it just me or do others have difficulty getting the gas cap back on? I have a hard time screwing it back in every time. I think I almost cross thread it before backing out and starting over. I eventually get it back in after a struggle. Is there an aftermarket cap maybe?

 

Take it Back to your dealer. my 16 had same issue, has to do with temp and fumes from gas makes it expand. I got a new one and now no troubles

 

Got the dealer to replace mine 2x....Went to O'Reillys, spend $8 or $10 and got a Slant replacement cap.

 

Lotsa discussion.
Look here at post #37 and a follow up on #39

 

I had a loaner last weekend and when I went to refill it, I had the same problem. I thought it was just me being too stupid that I couldn't even put a gas can back on. Thank all of you for giving me back my sanity.

The only gas cap problem I have is the gas lid on my present TG and all the past ElectraGlides I've owned. Why can't H-D make it so the lid opens more fully backward. With some farkles on my handlebars, I sometime have a hard time getting the gas nozzle into the hole.

 

I just sanded down that sharp edge before the first thread and works like a charm!

 

Ok thank you all...now I know I am not crazy..at least when it comes to this gas cap issue.

 

I got the Stant 10834 replacement at Walmart. $5.50 with tax. They just lower it $1.30 this week.

 

thank you guys....new cap fixed it.

 

I had the same problem on my 2016 road glide. seems to be a common problem. dealer replaced it under warranty
