Nice bike sir. Before you commit to those v&h pipes, consider sending the stocks mufflers off to be modified. IMO, the stock pipes on a Heritage are the best looking option.
thanks. I like the stock looks, too, but got a pretty good deal on a slightly used set of twin slash, so will give them a try. if I don't like them I may go the American custom route.
I used a couple of washers I had laying around and cheap 90 degree bracket to hold them on. Now that I have a welder I might try to weld a new set onto a bolt and see how that works out.
I made these for my Deluxe. I used an eye bolt, a few washers that I bent, and a short bolt to connect them to the eye bolt. They work great. I drilled a hole through the back side of the pipe to mount them.
Installed and test road my Touring seat for my Fat Boy today.
It uses the same mounting system as the solo seat I have, so I can swap between them with just 1 bolt.
The touring seat is a Saddlemen Explorer RS for the FLFB. I picked this seat because I believe it'd be the most fitting appearance wise to the fat chopper styling that I've been leaning into with my bike. It reminds me of an old lazy boy recliner. A bit like a fat version of those oldschool chopper seats.
It's already comfy right now, so I'm interested in how much more comfy it will be come over time when it breaks in.
Installed a DK breather kit. Only took about 30 mins. Took longer to modify the 1/2” hose clamp for aesthetics and getting old clutch cable heat wrap over the tube to protect from the VH rear exhaust pipe.
I think now that I just threw the warranty out the window I’ll be grabbing the Woods 22xe cam next.
Haven't done it yet but next Friday dropping my 2020 FXLR off at the painters. Having it painted black with a gold Harley Davidson ( Motor Company under Harley Davidson) graphic on the sides. Never liked the stock graphic on the tank.

Agree. I'm repairing a salvage '19 FXLR and dropped the tins off yesterday for black as well. Almost went with your decal but decided on the one below to match the wheels and red calipers.

I'm in the process of installing a Sedona Orange Tank onto my 2019 Slim.
I'm waiting on the tank drain plugs to come in. My original tank had 2 drain plugs. The new tank has 3 larger drain plugs... Why?
