Fuel cover

[satownsendsr]

Has anyone put a fuel door cover on an OEM seat for a RT Limited or other models. I am looking fora way to fuel up without having to raise the seat. I have looked at most all of the auto parts stores and they seem to have quit carrying them. If you did install one, where did you purchase it and what size?

That's the one that I was going to point out as well...
Although I think that MotorcycleDave will also modify the stock seat in a similar manner... :thumbup:

I found the smallest on they sell on Amazon, much smaller than the stardard ones. I covered in black vinyl to match the seat to make it blend in better. It works great and people think it is stock.

They have you covered. The fuel door is very convenient if you are carrying a passenger or other gear on the seat. :thumbup:

Thanks for steering us in the correct direction for the fuel door. Your work is very nice. That particular door is pricey compared to others, but might just be the perfect one.

Do you happen to have access to the part number of the one that you ordered? :thumbup:

Looks like this is the one he used. There is even a review written.

I've been looking for one a bit less expensive in the same size. Might just have to bite the "billet" and get this one.

That is my bike and after using it for fill ups all year it still looks good
and the price was right $0.00:yes:
I always have my dogs and there seat is strapped on the passengers hand grips so this is very handy
I am thinking about doing the same to the other side for checking the oil
