Dipstick Question
Hi all, I have an 05 FXDCI and I can't for the life of me remove the f'n dipstick. I bought the bike used, but I assume it is the stock dipstick. It is chrome with a knurled edge and when I attempt to unscrew it the cap simply spins freely in both directions. It doesn't get tighter or more loose, and it honestly doesn't feel as though it is threaded into anything at all, if anything it feels like it is seated in a very firm rubber mount. Am I just a moron who doesn't know how to unscrew his oil filler cap?

If you look at the link, it looks like according to the fitment specs up to 2006 the oil dipstick just pops in and out. There is no threads, just rubber gasket that keeps the dipstick in the filler tube.

I only asked why he asked "Am I just a moron who doesn't know how to unscrew his oil filler cap?". Nothing more. The dictionary definition of moron is "a very stupid person". Had he asked, "am I a very stupid person", I would have said, "no, you're an ignorant person". Now the dictionary definition of ignorant, which the OP is in this case is "destitute of knowledge". As for defining ******* as a "detestable person", that I am. In fact, I think I'm going to take on the new name on HDF as *******#1.
