Guys, I'm new to this group and have a question about these conversions. This may be covered in here already but I haven't found it yet. Here goes, what differences can I expect in ride and handling after this mod. I'm leaning towards a bobber style bike with big tires front and rear. I assume I can tune the suspension for ride quality, what I'm most interested in is handling and stability I guess. Thanks

Roomer, I can't answer your question. I just want to give you a heads up, sometimes this thread is very active, sometimes it goes days on end with nothing new. Someone will anwer your questions and help you with additional ones soon. Good luck with your new bike mod adventures.

Roomer; its difficult to explain the difference; the FL provides alot better ride quality, yet, I lost some parking lot maneuverability (I have 2" tank lift) when I went to the FL front end. I'm going to try to get it to turn a bit more, but I dont know how much it'll go.
As far as that, I love it. Its like riding a buick....if I had air shocks on the back which might happen soon.
And BlueAngel - I check this every day for new ideas/tips.

Thanks guys. Do you feel overall it made a better bike. Just a little concerned with not being able to go back if I don't like it.

Mars, I didn't say people weren't actively checking in, just that days can go by without a response, I too check in just about everyday, but I don't always have a response. I was just trying to not discourage Roomer if he checked in and didn't have a response to his concerns yet.

Sunnydaze, that is one beautiful bike. You didn't have to cut off the fork stop or grind down the neck to flush?

A Fat Bob is basically how it will ride and handle, see if you can get a test ride somewhere and you will get a good idea.
