helped my bud fix up his fatty -
alot of work on it -
hes happy with the turn out
from the ugly silver paint/chain airbrush
to almost factory look with alot of changes to long to list them all

polished the rim lips with him as well , u can see the scoot looks loved now !
just wanted to share some pix of his bad aZz fatty

reworking the fatty






the aftermath -
polished the rims with him , still waiting to paint the inner portion with plasti-dip or maybe powdercoat them black not sure yet- he just wants to ride
but you can see how damn nice the polished rim lips turned out
still waiting for a exhaust

 

Nice work in rescuing a bike from someones bad taste.

 

wowwwww thats a nice bike! great job!

 

Ditch the front whitewall and call it done....

Nice transformation. Looks awesome, especially with the drag bars...

 

thanks !! he likes the ww he got one for the rear it looks awsome , il try to get more pix when its back together - we took it apart again to do some motor work, its in bits now

 

I agree with Elfnyc change the front wheel and it will make a big difference probably ride better in most situations the solid wheel can give you some grief at times. The right front wheel will make a huge difference

 

Nice looking bike! I have the same rims...what did you use to polish the rims..I love them!!

 

lots of steps to clean them up

clean them up a bit
use scotchbrite pads to get the heavy work done first
then go from 600 grit all the way up to 1000 or 2000 wet paper the more u sand and smoother you get at this step the better the end result will be

once thats done get yourself some mothers and polish away !!
you can do by hand but it gets tedious an hand numbing lol
get yourself a polishing wheel and drill ... much faster and better job

works great

 

Great looking Fatboy and nice work. 99 was a damn good year for softails.

 

Looks much better.
