Tell me why I shouldn't buy a springer...

To your concern though. They are tricky to work on and if you don't get them right, they can get dangerous. They require more maintence than a standard front end does, but the pay off is well worth it. Also, a bit of advice with the fall away. Most bikes run great at 1.5in fall away, but my bike didn't run right until it was set to 2.5in of fall away. I've read elsewhere, they like to be a bit tight.
Also, the front brake sucks!
The FatBoy is cool, but a Springer will always stand out, and if you don't like the crappy brake on the front, you can always upgrade it. As my bike sits now, she stops better than any bike I've owned anymore.
I have these PM brakes on front and rear.

Ok!!
Ok!!
So I've decided I'm goin for it... I have to run a check to make sure it's not encumbered its mine
I'll have to wait to finish of the fatty before I do any mods but it will give me time to decide on how I want it
I love the bobbed out springers but I think I'll go the vicla (?) look
I want a 21 up front probably fat spokes, but would like some opinions on a color combo
I'm thinking chrome spokes with black rim & hubs??
What do you guys think??
Here she is...
