I am unhappy with the fuel door on my '19 tri-glide, wishing it opened further. I didn't see anything after doing a search, so has anybody modified the door/hinge so it opens further?
Thanks

Over 30 yrs on HD & never gave it a thought. No problem for me.
Lefty here...:drinks:Stay Safe, Stay Home and Stay Healthy... FredWhen I rode two wheelers I always pulled in with the left side facing the pump and pumped from the left side since I fueled with the bike on the side stand and the door could be a bit in the way. But with the TG I do it from the right side and the fuel door isn't a problem at all. I am right handed so those who are left handed would probably want to fuel the TG from the left side.

It is a pain in the ass for sure. I don't know why HD don't make the door open for the rear.
A one inch piece of milk jug with an X cut in the center place the screw through the seat bracket and push the plastic washer you created on the bolt. I did this Seven years ago and it's still in place and easy to get started as well. Stay Safe, Stay Home and Stay Healthy... :good: FredNever thought about the fuel door situation, it just seemed normal! However rhino, the seat screw is another situation. What a pain to get back into place, especially with the Road Zeppelin seat, that seems to take up a little more space.

Well not really my Idea and I forget where I heard it, but it sure works for me. Stay safe .... Fred:boredom:GREAT idea Fred. Had seat off to adjust shocks AGAIN. Cut a piece of plastic & stuck on the bolt. New model is now 3" long with a knurled head . You could still drop it,so your fix was good.
