Correct oil tank for 1965

#1

Post by CC Rider »

Hello,

Newbie owner of a 1965 FLH. I was told by an old timer H-D mechanic that my oil tank was not correct for my year. Can someone provide some info on the correct oil tank for a '65 or possibly post a picture?

Thanks

'65 oil tank does not have a side oil fill, just the big central hole with the filter. If yours has a side fill it is wrong.
