Calling all FatBoy Lo Owners

Thanks everyone
Let's see...
Stock risers and bushings right now...Carlini High Rollers and bushings will be here by the end of the week.
Took the tank off to make the install of the bars easier (wires, throttle cables). Less chance of banging it up too. Console needed to come off to throw on the new led gauge.
Getting new mirrors soon and I drive 50 miles each way on I95 to work...not sure about only running with one. Planned on throwing them on underneath, wasn't sure how well they were going to work in either position on the new bars. Was thinking about HDs mirror/signal combo or just small round ones units. Still haven't switched out one of the levers either. But hey, who am I to argue with a Dr!! Lol
Got a derby being done up by Story and once the Shotgun is in, the bike will be close to "finished" Jim...
My wife said its startled her a few times in the dark when she went to do laundry in the garage. Wait till the red LEDs start pulsing by remote control when she walks in there next week...will need to film that!
Dynojet needs to get the 2011 software working so I can throw on the a/c, I'm getting impatient.
Everything after that will be "personality" enhancements. Powder coating stuff, painting bolts, cable clamps and eventually JimsFBL's seat.
Did I say finished? F'ing **** man, I shoulda just started smoking crack 5 months ago...gonna end up in the same place with my empty wallet.

I think you have the best looking dash and speedo on a lo that I have seen so far. I'd leave it as is or you can add some red and make it lose it's sexy look and I will buy your set up and take over the title for the best dash and speedo on a lo.

Also, on the LED headlight, I went to Daytona with it. Absolutely perfect. Pure white light, great distance and coverage.

+1.. i see people riding down the highway with ape's and i think to myself "Man...those guys look like a human parachute".. honestly that was my 1 deal breaker about getting apes..i already feel myself getting pushed around by the wind with the stock handlebars on, i couldn't do it with apes.. i mean i have enough trouble being comfortable on the highway doing 70..noooo buddy.

i can do an average 70 - 85 mph just fine... do you guys really get blown around that much?
it may have something to do with riding position, i have my bars leaning as much forward as i can, not laid back.
