Default Custom Fat Bob w/pics

My buddy asked me to post some new pics of his bike again for him. He just got a new paint job w/ghost flames. The seat is still a work in progress. Check it out...

Sweet. I love the paint. I'm wanting to change the paint on mine, (currently blue) and am wanting something more custom. I'm not flashy and don't want a "chick" paint job. I still want something tough looking that matches the bike's style. That is a great choice. Looks awesome.

Where did he get his rear fender? That is something I'd really like to do with mine. Already have a Brawler solo seat on order.

Looks great...love the full rear fender. How does he like the lowering kit in the rear? Im running 12" 418's in the rear and not willing to get rid of them to buy 412's. Besides they dont make 418's in 11", only 11 1/2". Been thinking of getting Tamarack 1" kit. Some argument saying that they put the shock on too much of an angle but have you ever seen the shocks on a v-rod? Just curious.

SHWEET! That seat looks pretty rustic in that last pic. Mustang makes a pretty good seat for not alot of money.

The paint looks good up close. Dont think it will show up too well at night, but in dayling the ghost flames look cool. The flames are pretty close the the HD Black Pearl color in my opinion. Its definately not a chick paint job...lol

The fender is just a modified dyna fender. He split it down the middle and adde 1" sheet metal to widen it.

He says the ride is fine with the shocks adjusted. The seat in the picture is just a mockup. I've havent ridden it, but sitting on it feels good.

paint and bike looks sick!!! seat looks horrible! ditch it and get something that flows with the bike a bit better, that one draws to much attention away form the rest of the bike... and the rest of the bike IS SICK!!!!! very nice!

Default awesome

So I love the fender and everything on your fatbob man! I am in Iraq right now and trying to do the samething to my bike! Is there anyway to just buy the rear fender like yours.... or do you have to do all the welding and everything on it? I just want to get home and slap that baby on and ride as far and long as I can and not stop for anything but gas. I am also painting it like an army green with a white star on the tank. Once all of it is done I will post some pictures up! I am trying to figure out how to compress my picture so i can put it on here!
