Default Put the Frieght Train Nacelle on my Fatboy..

Give me your honest opinion. Personally I always looked at my bike and thought the front end was missing something. I did a lot of searching on here, saw several pics and decided this was the piece it needed. Since I use the drag style bars, i had to do some grinding on the top of the nacelle to make it slide past the 1 1/2" bars and thankfully it came out perfect. I ordered the top piece to cover the middle by the bars, but honestly I think it looks fine without. So what do you all think? Better with the stock headlight or this way?

Great timing!!

Im looking as we speak to have the same headlamp fitted but was worried too.
However this looks very nice indeed.
I have the same issues with the front looking like somethings missing , the only difference is im going for beach bars.
Thanks for your post.

It looks awesome my uncle is looking into doing this also did you have to also buy a seperate riser kit it was a pretty expensive mod but well worth it.

I didn't need the riser kit because the bars I have bolt right to the triple tree and don't use the risers.


Thanks for the compliments too everyone! As far as the paint scheme, I absolutely love it. Expensive as hell, but many that have seen it in person say it was worth it. It looks black, but is more of a dark metallic cherry.

never really been fond of any of the nacelles harley sells/includes with these bikes. I'm hoping to take mine and the beer cans off this winter.
