Just purchased a 2013 Fatboy Lo this past weekend and I am looking for a good windshield. Looking for a tinted with black and not chrome trim. Dealer order the one that said fit my bike but when it came in it is one for bike with auxillary lights which I am not putting on. Any help or suggestions?? Thanks

So after my trip thru the mountains last week have a few issues
First after going down then back up the mountain my front brake master cylinder started leaking at the seal for the cap AGAIN WTF.....
Second either to much weight with the sissy bar luggage pack and saddle bags full or the harness just picked then to fall but the rear lighting harness got rubbed thru to bare wires and lost turn signals, I removed the rear fender seemed easier then removing the tire and about 4 wires are stripped down and rubber wire loom is hanging down for the first 6 inches or so, I guess it's cut and solder time ugh

Most glass shops can cut them down, if you want. Local shop here charges $20.

I'm still trying to read all the old posts on this thread ... up to page 208.
Bought my 2012 Lo back in February. (Last Saturday of the month + drizzly day + last year's model = petty good deal) Life has kept me busy since then so only have 1500 miles on it so far but I've loved every mile. Added a bag to the left side and removed the reflectors but otherwise have been patiently waiting to get exactly the parts I want. Well, no more!!! I've ordered and received the V&N 2-2 Big Radius and an S&S air cleaner ... both in black, of course.
Was going to order a PC V from Fuel Moto but got to looking at their Micro EFI. Looks like I can save a couple of bucks ... but at the risk of losing functionality if I decide in the future to beyond A/C and exhaust. Not planning those mods yet ... but who knows. Right? Anybody using their Micro EFI?
I'm reasonably adept with tools and have installed exhausts, carbs and ignitions on Shovels ... but I'm pretty green on the Lo still. Any thoughts on doing all three the same day? Thinking about hanging camera from ceiling to capture the installs on time lapse. Might be fun.
Thanks!
