Default Fat Bob owners, let's see your latest mods

The Fat Bob is sort of an unusual Harley and I always find it interesting to see what mods people have come up with for it.

Post some of pics of your latest and greatest Fat Bob mods.

Here's mine. All the pics are on the front page now. I just had a lot of stuff blacked out, moved the plate holder, new pegs, and put on new levers this weekend.

Why do you think it is unusual?

I can't post any mod pics of mine as it's currently totally stock and I don't pick it up from the dealer until Friday....

A lot of people consider the dish wheels and dual headlights unusual. Then again where I live anything that's not a softtail is unusual.

That's mostly it. Combined with the fat tires, it has a unique look among Harley's. A lot of people have told me they thought it was a Triumph until they got closer and saw the logo.

Personally, I like the look a lot, but I know it's not for everyone.

I do think you have to be careful with mods on a Fat Bob compared to the other Dyna's, though. I've seen just about every kind of mod you can think of on a Street Bob, and with a few exceptions they all looked pretty good. Same thing with the Super Glide Custom. But I've seen people do some of those same mods to a Fat Bob and the end result is just a little off somehow.

Thus I am interested in seeing what people have done because it is a cool bike.

I think the fat front tire and solid wheel is pretty unusual. But strangely sexy. A bit like the "Thick Hottie Showdown" thread.

The back end is also unusual looking with the dual LED taillights. I have a bit of a problem with the EU version of the dual headlights though as they are one on for dip and the other one on for main. That sucks and can't easily be changed. I need to find a US FXDF dual headlight reflector to get both lights on at the same time.
