I love it! I really think that gives a vintage look to the bike. Same look I was looking for.

Good job

Much better than stock for sure. Still have not decided on what light I want.

Before and after. How the bike looked when I first got it, and how it looks now.

If you mean the light, it's this one from Custom Chrome, part # 30121.

Well Gary,think about it ,those big expensive roadburners(for their time) were aimed at the "performance riders" back then.The type of riders who would race you for a beer or just bragging rights and use the same bike as their daily transportation.They were very passionate about their rides.The big standard bikes are still the most versatile(like dynas for instance).Just put your woman on the back and a bag on the rack and blast down the road to party with friends be it 100miles or 500miles.Thats what I used to do when I was younger and I can still do some serious riding LOL.

Hey Gary,

Does the Fat Boy light give off more light than the stock headlight?

Also, any tricks/advice on how to take off the stock headlight and put on the Fat Boy headlight?
