Just to revisit the fuel door being opened with any HD barrel key....
Actually any barrel key will work. I have one from an off road lock box and it works in the HD fuel door. A buddy of mine had a barrel key out of a work box and it opens the fuel door as well.
Take care,
Dave

This was a recent addition to a newly-purchased '07 Ultra. The previous owner had several scratches on each side of the batwing from brushing against objects in his small garage. Not wanting to replace the whole shell, I came up with these nice (in my opinion..) leather "wing-tip" covers. I even made a leather stamp to dress them up a bit. They hold up to highway speeds, are easy to clean, and don't wrinkle with weather changes. They were fairly easy to make and install, and are easily removable.View attachment 54224

A couple friends have taken their slip ons off the bagger and drilled a 3/8" to 1/2" hole in the front end of the catalitic insert. Sounds nice and quiet at idle, but comes alive at throttle. NOTE: These are not anywhere near as loud as SEs, V&Hs, Reins, Wild Pigs, etc. BUT, the price is right. (free).
After your friends get thru kidding you about your new mufflers, you can't go wrong with Wild Pigs. Search exhaust thread for great advice from various members. Wild Pigs w/ SMALL inserts are 90dBA at idle, which is exactly twice as loud as stock. NEVER change out the pipes and air cleaner without retuning, PCIII, etc.

Can you eloborate? I'm unclear what you're doing here. What do you mean you cut off and plated? Do you mean you have it chromed? It sounds like you cut off the left side of the exhaust altogether.
