Actually yes there are a couple things I can't seem to find that I would love to have...

Specifically for the rockers...

A swing arm mounted horizontal license plate bracket...(the swing arm is oval)

A low profile powder coated brake light for the bottom 3 holes on the fender of the rocker...

I bet there are a bunch of people who would be interested in that!

Hope that helps.

A detachable passenger backrest for the FatBoy that DOES NOT require the rear signals to be relocated. It would be EASY for Harley to make a really small change to the existing stampings to make this possible, but they haven't.

A COMPLETE extended forward control kit. +2" or +3"... COMPLETE, with the kickstand mount for the newer (2007 and beyond) FatBoys.... brake line, EVERYTHING! Nobody I know has one. I have tried everyone, and had lots of discussions on here about it, and been in touch with every manufacturer that was suggested to me, as well as ones I had researched myself.


THIS IS AN AWESOME THREAD BY THE WAY. VERY PRO-ACTIVE OF YOU. BRAVO!!! I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT BOTH PRODUCTS I SUGGESTED IN MY TWO POSTINGS IF THEY WERE AVAILABLE.

A detachable chrome solo luggage rack that fits 07 and later Fatboys with the 200mm rear end.

I believe HD has them in black, but not chrome.

Here's a link to show you what I mean (but it's for an 06 or earlier): http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

Here's a picture, but it's for an 06 or earlier with the narrower rear end.

Hey I just put a detachable on my Train and left the rear signals alone. Just have to cut about a 1/4" off the rear clamp and it slides on pretty slick. Do a search and there is a thread w/pics showing this done. Try it. I think the signal relocation kit looks cheap, didn't like it at all. Now I want ti install the signal spacers from a Duece they are shorter so they won't stick out so far

A reasonably priced 21" wire spoke front rim for 25mm axles. The only ones I have found are ~$430.

Thinner Detachable stuff.
When using the HD detachable hardware on the fender strut, it moves my saddle bags out approx 1 inch and leaves a HUGE gap between the fender and the saddle bag when viewed from the rear.
I have a Heritage and leave the bags on, but like to remove the sissy bar and pillion. Currently, I have to loosen the bolts after removing the bags so I can slide the sissy bar mount out (I cut the holes into slots so i wouldn't have to remove the bolt from the fender strut).
