Just picked up the Anniversary model. My first Fatboy, and was waiting for a blacked out version to come along...anniversary was just a bonus. Have not had the chance to ride it yet, but do want to change the bars and add a side bag. HD sells one, but looks a tad small and don't like the latches. Does anyone know of other vendors that make sidebags for our bikes? Here she is in her stock glory.

leatherworks makes a nice 5 inch wide bag that can fit a lot for a swing arm bag.

That is a nice looking ride. For me the looks are what really caught my eye. I love the dark color schemes. And for that there are not a lot of options, outside of redoing everything yourself. Of all the options this was my favorite choice. I wasn't even looking to purchase a bike. Just saw it in an ad. Called my dealership to see if they had one so I could see it in person, because it looked great to me. When I got there it already had pipes, a tuner and a dyno done on it. It just blew me away from the start. This is it on my way home from the dealer .

In my opinion it would have made sense to do a silver version with the yellow accents just like the original, but what do I know.

I

Picked up my Fat Boy 30th Anv a couple weeks ago! Haven't done much to it yet but threw on some black mustache guards and Kuryakyn Longhorn highway pegs I scored cheap on Craigslist, and tomorrow I'm getting a heel shifter, black seat nuts, and the much needed turn signal extensions. Planning on doing V&H Mini Grenades w/ Power Vision tune, S&S 475 cam with gear drive upgrade, and Harley 14" Fused ape handlebars.

I absolutely love this bike. It's my second Harley, I used to have a 2007 Night Train. I'm a simple man, I like completely murdered-out over a beautiful paint job. I despise chrome. When I saw this bike a couple months ago I fell in love and every passing day without it was full of heartache lol. Was able to capitalize off this whole pandemic thing and got a pretty good deal (I think) 21.5k out-the-door.

Glad to be back on 2 wheels after close to 3 years in a cage.

Nice...I’m in the Bay Area. What dealer hooked you up on that price OTD? Seems like a great deal.

Damn, how does that pipe sound? Do you know what tuner was used?

I live​ out towards Sac! I put a LOT of work into getting the deal I got.. Close to 2 weeks of having different dealers one-up the new lowest offer. Some salesman were getting angry with my antics lol. But every time one offered me a better deal, I took that deal to 4 or 5 others. They asked me not to share the price I got lol, but Rocklin Harley was where I bought it. They beat out Walnut Creek McGuire HD's "absolute best price" of 21,750 by matching it and then throwing in a $250 gift card (technically I paid 21,750, and got a 250 gift card). Rick at Rocklin is the man though. Great guy, hard working salesman. Always available to answer questions.

However, the pushy warranty-selling guy was getting very irritated I wouldn't buy any of his add-ons like the $900 clear coat.. But it was a good experience at Rocklin. Very nice dealership. Not run-down and trying to charge more than MSRP like HD of Sacramento. They were a joke. "With limited edition bikes like these, we don't really focus on MSRP; we go by DSRP, or Dealer Suggested Retail Price. We expect this bike to sell for at least $25,000 plus taxes and fees" I laughed so hard right there on the phone and told them I already had 2 offers for 22k out the door. The woman got very agitated and kept saying "they are literally losing money by doing that and that's just not a good business model. We are the oldest dealer around here and we have blah blah blah" as if that meant ****.
