Congrats!
When the new SoftGlides were born that was my favorite model and I couldn't wait to get to a dealer to check it out but once I sat on it, I am 6'2" 260 and ride a SB with forwards so it just felt too small for me, I couldn't stretch out and felt cramped on it. Sweet bike tho, I love the way that bike sits and looks enjoy it!

That and some tall bars and it’ll be there. I got a plan in my head. I really like the digital gauge set on the riser clamp on the new Street Bob and Breakout’s. Looking at the parts fiche, they use the same 4 conductor canbus connectors, and the breakout is basically identicla to the Fatboy except for the front end, so I *believe* it would work. I’m going to get a 8 or 10” riser and a drag bar, which’ll give me my preferred T-bar style hand position and have the full gauge data right in my field of view. No more looking down at the tank.
Its a ~$200 gamble (the cost of the gauge) but if it works it’ll be a big deal for me. This is what the console looks like:

The odometer portion can be rotated to tach, trip and time. I’ll get the top clamp chromed and it should be perfect. The stock gauge will just stay where it is, dark, unless I find a cool blank or cup holder or something lol.
