Default Gas cap question

Well I finally did it. Left my freak'in gas cap at a station miles away Thursday. While getting gas today I realized it. Called J & P tonite, they have nothing for me.
Any ideas?

Does HD still make these for 1994 Electra Glide or is there something else that fits under my fuel door?
BTW, it has to be vented.
Hate it..........losing ori ****!

You should be able to get one from the dealer.They probably don't have it in stock but they'll order it for you.

That's worth knowing! HM, might be worth visiting your closest gas stations, just in case....

Thanks. I was thinking it might still be there.
I'm going back to the station this morning, however it's raining. Think I'll take the car, guess I'm getting old. Use to ride rain or shine.

Your bike's too damn pretty to ride in the rain anyway, HM...

Thanks guys.
I drove up there and went to the pump I was at and no cap sitting on top.
Went inside and asked the counter-lady if they had any gas caps left since Thursday and she said just one, a Harley Davidson cap!

Unbelieveable and I didn't even know it had HD on it.

On mine there is a door over the cap. I ALWAYS leave the cap in there when I fill up. Glad you got it back. Maybe you could make gas cap holsters and sell them LOL.
