M&P on eBay here in the UK - Metzler Cruisertec (plus I got an extra 15% off the listed price)

From the looks of their's and the LA Chopper tool, i can make one from parts at Home Depot.
I understand, and I felt the same way, which is why I got my shop to buy it! The owner was very happy with the construction and quality and since he plans to recommend the lowering block to other customers he felt he needed to buy it. Make sure you tell us all how it works out when you get around to doing it.

That seat is really cool DEU.
It's a lot like the Tuck n Roll Saddlemen Profiler Seat.
Very clean looking bike.

Stopped by my dealership today, they are having Bike Week stuff going on, even though its 100 miles south of Daytona.

They have a 120th Anniversary Fatboy, its been there a little while, I saw it last week. It"s a beauty, but a little flashy for me. I asked a salesman what the price was, and he started to go check, but I stopped him. I'm not buying, just curious,so didn't want to waste anyones time. I did check on the MoCo's website, and its listed for $21,699. I was surprised, I though it would be much more.
