Default FatBoy finished...well for now anyways.

Finished up my dad's Fatboy Friday. He made a big mistake and told me to buy the parts andfix it like it was my own...Muhahaha!! Needless to say its a rough rider but it sure does look good and he won't make any long rides on it anyways. I personally like ape hangers but the ones that came on the bike were just to narrow and made the bike hard to turn so to make it a little easier to turn I went with the Wild One Chubby's, I cant remember which ones right now but I am sure it will come back to me.(I remembernow...I got the 504's)The bike already had a ton of chrome but I added the boomerings, axle covers, hiden axle up front and the Bad As Hell fork cap. Interanally wired the bars, put a set of Harley mirrors on it, it had Kuryakyn mirrors and they can be a pain to get adjusted right so I knew the HD's looked good and are easy to adjust.Overall I am happy with the look and knew what to expect with the ride and I told him going lower would make it a rough ride but he said to go with it. The front stayed at the stock height and gives it a nice raked look. The two major things needed to be done is paint and seat, the paint I can't do but the seat will be reshaped a little to flow better and sit better and a custom cover will be made, not sure what I am going use there yet but I am sure I have something laying around the shop to cover it with Let me know what you guys think.

What bars are those. I tried to look up the 504's and the 504 is not an ape bar. Maybe you can find out for me.
