Installed 4” fat risers on the fatboy today. The only dealer around who had them in stock was Wildcat H-D in London, KY. A great excuse for a nice road trip yesterday, then back over to Bubba Brews in Maynardville TN for a bite and some frosty beverages , all in all a productive day, I think.
Took a short test ride with the risers installed today and I think I’m gonna like them, I seem to be reaching a lot less and am able to sit up straighter.

Installed forward controls on my 2018 Street bob.
A big improvement to the original.

I had those forwards on mine, the mounts hang way too far out and they scrape around corners. Ended up changing to genuine Harley forwards, they are much better dimensions and far sturdier and stronger. I wouldn't recommend those to anyone...

Not quite "today" ... got it done back in March, just haven't posted on here in a while.
I couldn't stand the side plate any longer, so I got the Cadence Motorsports 2018+ Fat Bob Tag Mount and the Custom Dynamics Integrated Fat Bob LED Taillight with turn signals.
Here are some pictures after the install and one during the daytime.
P.S. if anyone knows of a good pair of rear turn signals, I'm in the market.

Finally got a chance to ride the mf'er! Rode to cemetary to visit with Pops, ran into a buddy that's a BMW freak, and did ALOT of backroad sightseeing. This dude has a bunch of these bikes, drug this 65 500cc out of his dining room today to get the cobwebs out. Lol.
