Calling all FatBoy Lo Owners
Have a issue with my '10 Lo and looking for some input.... I let it sit for two weeks or so and when I fired it up blue whitish blue smoke and ran really rough for a min or so and cleared up and road fine I'm sure it's just valve seals but looking for input.... Other info is it has 22k and have hafe valve train noise coming from rear cylinder for about 4k I've read in the touring section that a few people have had same issue and have said its from rocker support plate not sure if related so any input would be great
Well, I finally went in and picked up my new Lo. I was going to get a 2015 but the price was too good on the 2014's and by the time I had all my extra goodies put on the 2014 I was still $3,000.00 less than what I could get a 2015 for.
I'm very disappointed in the comfort of the foot controls and footboards on this bike. When I sat on it in the showroom I never even thought to check out the controls... I just assumed they would feel great like the rest of the bike. I find the footboards in conjunction with changing gears is extremely uncomfortable. I can barely get my big toe on the shifter up front. It's as if the whole works is too tight into the bike and needs to come outwards a bit. It's winter here and my garage isn't heated so I guess I'll just have to do some research on this problem and see if there's a fix for it, then tackle it come spring time. At any rate... here are the pics of my bike at the shop before I brought it home 2 days ago! Yes, the reflectors will be coming off! Haha

I was in an accident back in March and I have a hematoma on the inside of my left leg that is hitting the tank and not allowing my leg to get close enough to the shifter. I need to bring that shifter out or extend the shift pegs somehow.
