OSOAH,
Nice bike! Just ordered mine from the NEX Auto Source last week out here on the ship. SO I guess I just SORTA joined the Squadron! Same bike & Color. Have plans to change out the seat as well. Don't get mine delivered until June '10. Gonna be a long wait, but, from the looks of it, it's gonna be worth it.
Be careful out there! Just got off station last week, myself, and heading homeward as we speak.

Already sent the wife picture of the brown distressed leather seat (from the CVO) with "Jingle Bells, jingle bells" in the subject line. 45 days!

Yeah it is. Originally I was lookign at a Supe Glide Custom. But one of the guys I work with ordered a Fat Bob, and I decided what the H@LL. YOu only live / retire from the Navy once. SO, I ordered mine.
I hope it rides as good as it looks. From all I've heard here on this website, I think it will be more than worth it. Waiting on an answer back from NEX / HD on financing. 71 more days to Terminal Leave !

Funny, three of us in a row. Ordered mine from NEX Auto in Bahrain about 3 weeks ago. Will be ready for pick up at SDHD when I arrive in the middle of November, having completed almost 6 years straight sea duty and going to some sweet shore duty in SD to wrap this gig.

Are they a lot louder. I don't want to be in violation of the law or wake the neighbors but a little louder might be nice.

Got my new paint installed last week. Gonna start on a 107 build for it in a about a week(waiting on machine work to come in) and do chrome fork lowers at the same time. Hope to have wheels on by first of the year and then it'll be odds/ends stuff. I liked the paintjob that they did so much that I went ahead and ordered a set for my Ultra.

Hi!!, I'm Antonio from Spain and I'm the ownwer of a 2008 Denim Black Fat Bob (V&H BSS, K&N Air Filter, Tribar Led Tail Light, Black Progressives... and some other stuff on it)
I ordered my bike Nov 2007 and get it June 2008!! but I didn't mind the wait when I went to the shop and rode it back home.
There is a Spanish version of your Fat Bob Squadron and if you visit Spain (any city you visit) you can be sure there is a member of our Squadron to drink a pair of beers with you, just let us know.
Thank you for your hospitality and sorry about my english!

Road Warrior
Bought mine in April 2008, that was 24,000 miles ago. Can't remember checking in.
Stage 1 air cleaner, Arlen Ness Cheap Shot Didital Fule Optimizer.
I made the rear fender and exhaust. Went with a Run, Stop, Turn Signal module to light the rear & side mount plate.
The rear is lowered with 1.75" blocks, the front forks are slid up the trees 1".
At the time I'm using 1" Low Rider bars on 6" pull back risers with a Road King front brake line and Street Bob throttle & clutch cables. I've had beach bars and Fat Boy bars on there as well, both with the same cables.
2009 Street Bob solo seat. FLH floor boards.
1952 replica tank badges, round mirrors & nostalgic hand grips.
