Mustang Wide Vintage. Thanks

 

My Fatbob with Carlini 1.5 Flyin Apes.

 

...residing in my Garage. Only had it 2 weeks - my first bike AND I never rode before taking the MSF Course 3 weekends ago. Rode this beauty back and forth to work every day last week. Doing OK for a 56 year-old newb!

 

My new Fat Bob and my first Harley, just brought er' home this past Sunday, purchased from original owner, 1976 miles, custom paint, rush slip ons, billet foot levers, tear drop mirrors, chrome and rubber mini boards, and a few other goodies...can't wait to ride!

 

WOW! thats a sharp paint job.Nice!

 

P.S. watch that shiny stuff on the tires,could get your paint all scratched up.

 

Thanks for the compliments on the paint, that is one of the reasons I leaned toward this bike. I've always liked flames and the ember sunglo really turns on in direct sunlight.

Oh and the tire dressing, for sure, I appreciate the reminder. Previous owner did a quick clean up to sell the bike and he painted the tires with that junk. I definitely plan to wash/clean, go over the bike before I take it for the first ride.

And as I mention cleaning the bike, I would like to clean the motor, lots of dust has settled on the black cases of the motor. How do you guys clean the motor? Any tips/tricks? Just soap, water, detail brushes? What is best way to get the dust/dirt off the wrinkle black areas on my Fat Bob?

 

I just wash mine at the car wash, then ride home and dry with damp towel. Most people think I spend a lot of time cleaning it -- I don't.

Here's mine after going a little darker.

 

been on here for a while and finally decided to "check in". keep up the good work guys, bikes are looking real good. im pretty much done with mine except for a different air cleaner and a chopped rear fender.

 

What seat is that on the white one? Looks great!
