Absolutely nothing. Your bike looks awesome. I just think that a bigger front fender like the one off a Heritage or a Deluxe would complement the back fender on a Fatboy.

Thank you, I'll check. Yep, I agree on swapping out the AC with a round one. Looking at ACs as well...

I bought my wheels/50 spokes and tires from hogpro. I have a 2009 Fatboy. Can you pm me a pic and price? Thanks

Fat Boy

Bike looks great, Im going with the same Road King Front. The chrome arrow you replaced the emblem looks way cool. Where did you pick that up if I may inquire. I swear I saw this bike on the 5 Fwy last night coming in from LA Thx !

Guess I'll be the odd one out. I never liked the Heritage fender. To me, it's approaching Indian territory. So here's a wrapper.

I went with a heritage style fender on my Slim

I love it!

Cost about £70 (Custom Chrome), then about £250 to paint (chrome satin OEM paint) and then about £70 on front and side chrome trim

Seeing as the OP's last post was exactly 4 years ago. I'm gonna guess he's worked something out by now.

I'm sure he has... But forum posts are also for like minded folks with similar interests.

Just sharing my experience for the potential benefit or interest of others dude.
