Just a quick question. I was wondering if you have any heat issues for the rider or passenger with the F-bombs? I have the V&H comp series 2 into 1 and the heat is awful for both rider and passenger...


This looks longer and not as close to the front peg...

Finally got my first 48 last week. Seems a lot of people in this thread have removed the front fender. I love that look and being new to bikes want to make sure its an easy thing to do before I start. Thanks!

its easy... just undo the bolts and it will come off. just a forewarning if you ride in the rain... prepare to get sprayed from below. can tie a bandanna around the forks just above the tire.. heard that helps

I had a mishap... Old set of bars fell off a shelf and dinged the rear fender! Hope my wife doesn't notice any time soon!

Anybody got a stock rear fender in vivid black hanging around they wanna get rid of? If it were my bike, I'd probably find a chopped rear fender of fit... But she likes the longer rear fender. Waddy a gonna do?

I seriously just came here to get ideas of what to do to mine next but I may as well post my 2015 while I'm here. Probably going to do a springer front end next, and I wanted to do hard tail conversion but I just can't figure out where the hell to hide the wires. Or maybe I'll just sell it. I'm getting to old to keep riding these back breakers. Or maybe I'll just paint it again. I don't know, I have issues lol
