those kuryakyns don't look any more flush than the stock caps.

as for the question at hand, i don't think the new caps will fit because supposedly the fuel sending unit has changed on the 09's so you may run into a fitment issue on the guage side. the fill side is probably the same though. but i haven't looked at an 09 yet, so don't take that as gospel.

My guess is they would fit. I haven't heard of any changes being made to the tanks on the new models, and they don't even list the old flush mount kit on the site. I agree with you though, the new black chrome accessories look really nice, especially if you've got a bike with vivid black paint.

Get to know how much you can ride on a tank and always reset your tripmeter if you plan on getting the flushmounts.

They look good but only work about 30% of the time.

I was actually thinking about mounting a stock guage somewhere where it's hidden.

Flush-Mount Fuel Cap and Gauge Kit

Emphasize the long and lean look of the fuel tank. This flush-mount fuel cap and fuel gauge kit offers a pop-up filler design that when installed and sealed looks identical to the flush gauge. A simple push, and the fuel filler cap pops up to provide ample grip, even while wearing gloves. The flush fuel gauge features individual LED lamps that shine through glass that glows when the ignition is switched on. A photocell automatically adjusts LED brightness for improved visibility in direct sunlight, and dims at night to avoid distraction. Complete kit includes fuel cap, fuel gauge, trim ring, and plug-in wiring harness. Patent pending.





Web site says chrome fits do not think there is any differance except color

Chrome
Fits '04-later FXDL, FXDB, FXD35, FXDWG and '07-later FXDC, FXDF models.

You must flush, you must! It looks great and for me its quite accurate. Gotta love the blu LEDs.


Peace,
