Fuel gauge
Fuel gauge is broken on my bike, really don't care that it does not work. I estimate my fuel amount through mileage anyway. I have searched through many posts trying to find how and what I would need to just take the fuel gauge off and the components out of the tank, to include the sending unit wire at the bottom external part of the tank. Any thoughts on what can be used to fill the whole where the wires exit the tank and what to replace the gauge with? Any help, thoughts or opinions are well worth a shot. Thank you in advance.

Here's a wiring diagram showing the fuel gauge specs. You could use this to determine if it is a gauge or sender malfunction.

If you want to take out the fuel gauge, just pull it out.......

Much appreciated, trying to find a different (non HD) gauge have only found a few, prefer the flush mounted ones, but have had little success at finding. I know that some parts can cross between the bikes, so if I find one that fits, say a softtail, will it fit my tank with out mods to the metal? I can figure out the wiring somewhere along the way.
Thank you for the links! Very helpful, not a seasoned rider yet so I am trying soak up all this info (lurking) on here.
