OVERVIEW

This upgraded oil tank dipstick replaces standard equipment on select Harley-Davidson models while delivering distinct cosmetic character. The assembly pairs a precision-calibrated 2-5/8-inch measuring arm with a parkerized and chrome-finished cap featuring a Maltese cross profile. Engineered specifically for Softail and Sportster chassis, it maintains routine fluid monitoring without sacrificing aftermarket styling goals.

ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE

The 2-5/8 inch probe ensures consistent and accurate oil level verification under varying parking angles and temperature ranges. Built with a hardened parkerized core and polished chrome exterior, the cap resists degradation from engine heat, road debris, and standard cleaning solvents. Designed as a direct replacement, it utilizes factory mounting threads and seals for leak-free operation without requiring drilling or adapter fabrication.
