Nothing like owning and riding a softail. Nothing else compares. Enjoy the smiles with every mile

Your FB is very pretty, please keep those stock pipes...none look better. I only rode a FB once on a dealer ride but have heard that the solid wheels make riding in sidewinds tricky. Is this true or just an old tale? Those wheels are also part of what makes a FB special. I think HD made major styling mistakes on the 16 S model.

The other question for me is will throw over soft bas work on the FB? I think stand off's are available but just wondered how they worked.

Opps, one more question. Is there no oil cooler on a 103 FB? Why would HD not have that as stock?

Have an engine protector, sissy bar, luggage rack and GPS mount on order. Considering a soft leather bag to hang onto the sissy bar. Suggestions welcome.
