Anyone know if the dipstick PN 62693-07A will work on 2015+ touring models?

Thanks for your feedback.

Merry Christmas

Thanks. I use that site all the time. Sometimes HD doesn't say that a part is compatible with other models when it really is. Hoping someone here will chime in. I would like to replace the round head dipstick with a hex head dipstick so that I can use a hex socket to get past the exhaust to remove the dipstick. Part # 62693-07A is a chrome one that was used on touring models thru 2014. Hoping someone has tried in on a 2015+ model.

 

If it fits a '14 touring model, I see no reason why it shouldn't fit a '15 touring model.

This link says '07 and later touring models.

Won't work on M8s threads same lengths different

 

If the threads match, I can think of few things easier than screwing in the new one and marking the oil level with paint or a magic marker. If the new one is longer and some mechanical interference is feared, cut it off to match the old one. If the new one is too short to reach the oil surface, then it won't work. Few things are any more low tech than a dip stick.

 

Good tip. Thanks

 

M8 dipstick is shorter yes you can use earlier version as long as you remark proper level and pay no attention to marks already on it. 103 stick is not rigid and also nice aluminum hex head not black plastic pos that comes on m8s

 

Thanks for the info. I'm going to order the earlier chrome version to compare to the one I have. Wonder if the caps can be switched?
Merry Christmas.

 

I ordered the chrome cap dipstick PN 62693-07A. The length is the same as the one on my 2015 tri glide but the treads are different It wouldn't screw in. After close observation, the caps do snap off. With a little pressure, the caps snap right off so I switched caps and now have a chrome hex cap in place of the round plastic one. Now I can used Jim's Tools hex dipstick tool to get past the hot exhaust to remove the dipstick.......and that's the rest of the story.

Thanks everyone for their comments, opinions, suggestions, and feedback.
