Default 09 Cross Bones ???

I had to part with my 08 Cross Bones shortly after I bought it. Now im back on track and just bought a 09 cross bones today.
I am trying to find out if there are any changes between the 08's and 09's? I still have alot of items I purchased for my 08, mainly a Doebecks TFI fueler. From what I can find out, it appears it should work. I will be installing my Vance & Hines RSD Tracker exhaust this weekend.
Im hoping the fueler will work on the 09's, anyone know for sure?

I did the same 'checking' before I bought my 08. The only thing I could find was an increased oil capacity...??? 3.0 vs 3.5 in the 09. I have asked around but have no idea where the extra .5 comes from. I am starting to think it is a typo I would like the extra capacity but I have no idea where it comes from. Oil tank appears to be the same part number and that was my obvious pick and an easy fix if I wanted the extra .5.

I think the cross bones has the same oil tank that all the other softails have, so it is a 3.5 quart oil capacity, however when you change the oil you will only have to put 3 gallons back in b/c about .5 gallons will remain in the oil lines and crank case.

The TFI would probably work, don't see why not. No big changes that I am aware of, except for that "cartoonish" skull on the oil tank. No offense.

yep that is about it! it has clear coat over it so removing it will be a chore... glad I have an 08

Love the RSD exhaust and intake.... I also have installed the RSD classic apes... but don't have a picture yet!! maybe this weekend, depending on the Hurricane...

Right 3.5 on the 09's and it is spec'd as such on the HD website but the 08 is spec'd as having a 3.0 quart capacity and my 08 Service Manual also states 3.0. It drove me nuts for a while but I got over it...
