Got the front ones off for now. Might mess with the rear tomorrow.

I took a rag covered wood chisel. Once they pried up, then took flat wood (popsicle) stick to slowly pry the rest of the way so I could grab it. Took all of 5 minutes for all 4 including cleaning. Any residue was cleaned up with "scotchguard" spray. They use it here at work to remove labels

How about a 2" tank lift to get the top to flow nice and expose the rocker boxes.
Cheap and subtle.
NGood Luck with the WG BTW.

cmiller

what size tire is on the back of that thing?
looks like a 180.
I was wondering if Harley made the fender the same width as the Fatbob.

I'd like to install one on the Fatbob

You should black out rear sig bullets to match struts.
