Finally installed 10 inch Paul Yaffe Monkey Bars on my Fatboy.
No really into apes but I gotta admit those look good on your bike. Almost makes it look like it's already rolling.
You've got a sweet looking ride there!
I think apes are the best looking bars for a Fat Boy. I plan on getting some for mine, but a little less aggressive looking. I really like the styling of the miter cut bars, but the Harley Fused Apes are the ones I'm currently planning on buying. Really like the unique beveled top bend. I can't find any others I like more. 1.5" would be nice, but I haven't found any that I like.
Glad this thread was revived. I'll try to participate more, seems like there are so few of us Fat Boy riders.

Been a while and things have changed so posting update here--as it stands now - except sold mustang seat as it wasn't all that much better than HD and now have backrest that works well with HD seat -- ugly but works

Something is up with the forum software or something. Im subbed to this thread yet it never tells me when you guys post.
I'm hopefully getting my fat boy here before the new model year comes out or slightly after, so I'm kinda interested in this thread, and hopefully ill be posting my bike here shortly.
But the for software has no problem telling me every time someone posts in the lowrider S thread even though I posted there like 3 times.
Tad bit annoying.
Hey, at least you could get the bags. They're not available right now.
Your Fat Boy looks cool in that Bonneville Salt Pearl color. Personally I would not try to make it a tourer and uglify it. Fat Boys are meant to be just that, bare naked Fat Boy muscle badassness. I would get a Road King for any short range touring itches
No I have a Black FLFBS about a month now. Still waiting for Vance Hines to release the Satin Chrome Eliminators. Nobody has them in stock yet. I love the bike. I'm 71 and went from a CVO Street glide to this. SG too heavy. Man this bike is fast for stock.
Is this FatBoy lower than the SG? A friends 14 FB Lo is very comfortable. Im 6 ft and feel very comfy on the FB Lo. TIA

Nice ride. Get any sail effect from those solid rims?
