Had the Freewheeler out riding yesterday and noticed when we got home that the rear wheel center cover was gone. I have not been able to locate this in the HD parts catalog. Does anyone have a part number for it or know exactly what HD calls it? :confused:

If this helps.....On my 11 Tri....

Center Cap Assembly...Rear...#83385-09.....

I took mine off to paint the wheels , And it was one heck of a job to remove them, Harley uses a dry yellow lock-tight, They probably forgot to put it on yours....:Shrug:

Just to add when you take the wheel off watch for the large center washer and bolt , That will still be in there rattling around...

Can't edit/add....so i'll post this... Go to the other rear wheel and with your fingers tap on the cap to make sure that one isn't loose... They can only be tighten wheel off from the inside...

Wow, I would have thought plastic caps were half the cost of the heavy aluminum ones Which are 50 dollars per wheel...And if only the center cap was needed 22 dollars a wheel... Go figure...:Shrug:
 
Bev, package is on way, USPS. From ND to SD shouldn't be more than a month.

Post office may have something to say to you when it arrives. You'll see what I mean. I did what I could with what I had... :xzqxz:
 
Thanks frostbite51! I didn't realize you were in Dickinson! We don't live that far apart....I will buy you beerS when I meet you!
 
Thank you frostbite51

Got the parts frostbite51....many thanks! Post office didn't even question who Bev Moonstar was....:laugh: Now to clean it up and put them on!
 
I wonder if a person could take some rubber hose and shim it behind those flanges to put some more tension on them? And then I wondered if they're falling off or getting stolen. These are not gentle times we live in...
 
This one fell off. Only had it on the road and in the garage that day. Took pictures of it when we left and noticed it when I got home that day. I am on another forum though where others have had issues with them falling off. One person said they put a small amount of glue on the flange to keep it in but I am a bit hesitant to do that. I can see me breaking the *&*# thing when it needs to come off!

And it will cost you that much to send it back after you find out it don't fit on a Freewheeler...

I was just being amazed at the price difference .... beings the TG is aluminum and the FLRT is plastic.

Several TG owners have used the FLRT center caps for a different look ... so I thought they were the same size center hole?????

Unbelievable

The stock hub cap for a freewheeler is $110.00 Canadian but if you look in the accessory book from Harley a set of 2 wheel covers (part no. 83841-09) which are better looking are only $41.95 American. Just does not make sense
