Default My 2010 Fat Bob

Hi there, I finally got my bike back together and out of the garage. Took it on a short trip to the dealer and back today. Had to have a new fork lock installed as the key stuck in it and was destroyed to get it out.

I had the headlight, rear turn signals, chrome side pieces and removable sissy bar with some hardware powder coated HD Texture Black to match the Denim. Replaced the stock shocks with Progressive 412's and added in the Tri-Bar LED tail light.

I'm waiting on the black HD mirrors with signals to come it so I can remove the front turn signals. I also want to get the belt guard pc and perhaps the triple trees. I've also got to clean up the wheels and front of the bike. Some kind of grey overspray from the previous owner.

I'm looking at either the Kuryakyn Iso or the HD x2 grips. Also thinking the Zombie levers. I'd also like to add the combo speedo/Tach and do a stage 1 at some point. Looking at LED options for the rear Turn signals. I'd rather keep the stock bullets instead of replacing them.

I appreciate the help, advice and suggestions that I've received while a member here.

Cool deal. A shot of wd40 in the key way every oil change is a wonderful thing on these new style keys. Congrats on getting it ready to ride ......I envy you that you got to ride .....that's awesome.

Bike looks nice! You can mod that Tri-bar a bit and lose the reflector and raise your license plate up if you like:



I originally was going for the ISO grips but sent them back because of some hard glue left over from the manufacture inside the throttle grip. Bought the HD "Get-a-Grip" and like them a lot - not as soft though and you do not have to use glue at all. Have fun!

Nice looking bike. The wrinkle black looks great on the headlights.

BTW. Graphite piwder is even better than WD40 in the locks. Use it from new and renew it every 3 months or so for a healthy lock life.

Looks good. Keep an eye on that tri-bar, the plastic tabs it uses to screw it in have a tendency to break off if it wasn't installed properly. Something to do with making sure the light is popped into place to hold its weight before tightening down. Instructions were lacking in that area. A few of us here have lost theirs on the road.

I will keep a check on it. I'm slowly working forward on the PC. Since it spent a month sitting in my garage I want to ride before having it sit again.
