Traded the sportster today, picked up this Fatboy
Looking to get to know you boys and get some help and add some thoughts if I can.

 

Welcome to theworld ofSoftail. Ya got a great bike. Gonna be a bit of a change from a Sporty so beware of the floorboards. But its a better ride for two up and or longer distance cruising.
So what's the first thing your gonna change?

Lookin' good.
I'm loving mine and I know you will too.

 

The first thing is to ride it with the windshield, bags and sissy bar off.
Then probably some different handlebars.

I will say this, I got all winter to figure out what to add. I can say that doing 80 with a windshield for the first time was kind of different.

 

Thanks... here is a close up of the tank...

 

Now that's a nice color. I thought it was black until I saw this, then looked again at your original posting and realized it really is green. Really different, I like it alot.

 

Yes, my good Dr. it's a clear-cut case of Softail-itis...having dealt with this affliction personally (the FXST strain) I can honestly say there is no known cure...but to alleviate some of the symptoms I personallyrecommend several thousand miles to be added to the odometer...treatment should begin immediately

 

Dragonfly!
