Yes indeed. I purchased the HD locking gas cap as an accessory before going on a major tour.

Afraid someone will steal or your gas or sabotage the bike by putting something in it? That thought never really crossed my mind but yeah I guess thinking back to my sport bike days I did have the cap that required the bike key to open. Surely Harley or some company makes one? I have the flush mount on mine and love it I'm hoping if someone would do something to my bike they wouldn't be able to figure out how to get the cap off lol

Hope your weather is better than mine. Have only managed to ride once a week the last 3 weeks.

Harley makes locking gas cap doors on the Baggers, but I think any Harley (barrel) key will open them...

From my first street bike in 1982 (Suzuki GS 300) to the six others I had up and to 2015 were all Japanese bikes and all had locking gas caps. I really do not understand why something so simple is an accessory on a HD. A locking gas cap should be a standard item on any vehicle as far as I am concerned.

can’t argue there I agree should be standard on everything.

on a side note I did get a ride in today, cut a bit short as traffic on the ride up to the mountains really cut into my time. Ended up doing 250 miles, about 100 of those on the blue ridge parkway. weather was fantastic!
