RE: mustang seat fiited
I'll be getting the Fatboy back from the shop in a few weeks, after a crash. Picked up a mustang solo w/rider backrest. Just wondered how the fender bib is attached? Goes it sit under the two pegs on the underside of the rear of the saddle? Here is a pic from a post that jetdrver put up. BTW, nice looking ride jtdrvr!

RE: mustang seat fiited
I ordered the fender bib from Mustang to compliment the stock Fat Boy seat. I was told it would fit on the 2 thumb screws (that hold the rear of the seat)... but,it was about 2 inches too short to go up under the stock seat andtheir mounting idea was to usevelcro and double stick tape and the rear screw. Mustang customer service refunded my money, including all the shipping expense. evidently, it doesn't fit an '08. I'm now running the stock seat from a Standard.

RE: mustang seat fiited
Texas, thanks for the pic and info. I'm waiting for the bike to see if the Mustang seat puts me any more forward before I worry about pullback risers. I have a Firehouse rider backrest on the stock Fatboy seat, and still hadto stretch armsto reach the bars while leaned back. I saw your info a few months back saying the pullback risers don't require any cable changes. Also had to order bags yesterday since the dealer could not locate any 100th FLSTF bags anywhere in the country. That's probably good, the insurance is allowing $850 for new bags. I had to go with the dealer on the detatchable softail bags. (I know there are different opinions on here about bags and detatchable mounts). The bigger size bags should fit OK with the D&D Fatcat exhaust that's going on. I should have went with some deluxe aux lights but they already got the detatchable windshield delivered. I'll remember to put up a few pics when things are together and it's home. 5° here right now so it won't be anytime soon. Well, thanks for the help. Got to find some velcro next I guess.
