Thanks for the help! Slowrower, I assume that port is the same as on my 07 BDM S&S 117 case?

Sure is ... easy to get to -- be sure you save the plug if your gauge goes bad.

I wasn't sure what the cut off was, I guess its 04 right?

My 04 bulldog is 117". I think only the bulldog's were the 117". All else 107".

117 was an option in 04

Just jumpin in here....got the auto meter guage 2173, not liquid filled and according to autometer they don't make a 1 1/2" liquid filled guage...
All the liquid filled ones I can find have the rubber plug....which is NG according to Gas....will the autometer guage w/out the liquid work, if not, any specific liquid filled guages that you guys reccommend w/out the rubber plug...or at least one that holds up with the plug......

The Black faced autometer that I have is oil filled and looks like (font, needle and all) our speedos.

Things to watch for.

Get oil filled
Try to get one WITHOUT the rubber plug. They are known to burn out or just pop out like my first sifton one did. Sifton USE to be made in the USA but are now china junk and mine was as I spoke about in my thread Dave linked.

But as I said... poof it was gone.. the filled oil in the gauge leaking all over my motor

Gas. I want exactly what you have. You have part #"s? Any info would be greatful. :2thumbs:

 

[hoat]

The one vickey sold me was not oil filled????

 

[lee]

[Rick]

I have the same one as Gas Man...part #2173 works great!:up:

thanks Dave - and is the gauge itself the only part you need or do you anything else to install it etc?

No problem...
Lee....in Gas's thread ...he has the part # for the gauge and then you need the fitting kit to go with it.....that part # is in there also.....its like $8.99
for the fitting kit...

thanks Dave

Thanks ChopperDave (by the way your bike looks sick), I forgot about GM's original post. So I checked the Auto meter site part number 2173 is reflected as a fuel gauge, not an oil pres guage. Although in the install instructions it says it can be used as an oil pres guage. Doesnt say if it's still liquid filled, but it has a 12 mon. warranty.

thanks Dave

:up: anytime bro...

Thanks Rick!:up: can't wait to see yours when its done
I'm not sure if its liquid filled or not.....I have taking the bike out in 38 degree weather and it works fine....
