2014 Fat Bob Progression
#12
Thanks!
Well I've got a flush mount fuel gauge and gas cap from hd that'll be going on this weekend. Also a bad and g customs battery bag and left side solo bag both with red stitching. After that I'm probably done until next winter with "big" upgrades but cams are definitely on the list. Also kicking around the idea of a fairing and 2-1 exhaust but I just can't decide if I like the look of them on a fat bob enough. Also gonna start looking at wheels at some point and a new seat. The work is never done!
Also forgot to add in my original post I pulled the baffles out of my BSS and put in some DK Customs TTI's. W158's. Love em

I have the TTI'S also, and just can't seem to ever warm up to any of the fairings made for the FB.
There was one made by a company in CA, I can't remember the name, I want to say illusion cycle or something like that, but they closed shop.
It was the only fairing I ever liked on a FB. It slightly resembled the modified buell ones you sometimes see. Just because I retain odd info, I remember when I was Googling it, the guy that owned the shop was asked to play a role on SOA during the height of its popularity, but I want to say he was actually a patched in SoCal member of sorts.
At any rate, I agree. I'm yet to find a fairing that convinces me it looks right with the wide forks and dual lights.

I agree that is a good looking fairing. I'd probably run one like that. It's a lot slimmer than most others made for the Fat Bob. I dig it.

It was advertised as sold for a fxdf, and I didn't think Vrods shared the dual light assembly.
I do however realize the other differences in the pic between bikes, just assumed it was a complete custom.

That particular one is on a Vrod
Just because it has a Fat Bob headlight doesn't change that

I've done quite a few of those same mods, however I powder coated struts, signals, horn, and chain guard. (Still have to do headlight) I also added the wide glide mini sissy. I have the V&H BSS pipes, and the DK 606 intake with a powder coated Rushmore cover. Ive been considering trying to get cams in before season starts (NY) and was thinking about either new bars, or the spacers you have.
Would you mind posting a side pic of the bike with the tank lift, and bar risers. I've been really kicking it around, but haven't seen a picture of one yet
