Here's my 2018 Fat Bob FXFBS. I'm about to change out the stock tires. Thinking Metzeler Cruisetec or Avon Cobra. Avon also has a Cobra Chrome, not sure what the difference between cobra and cobra chrome is though. Leaning towards the Metzeler as I've heard a lot of good things about their tires.
Finished my bar swap today (minus the ricks levers which have not arrived yet).
Todds cycle 10" strip bars in 1.5" diameter sitting on stock risers. All cables and connections were lengthened to make it work.

Looks great. Haven't seen too many Fatbobs with this style handlebar. Seems like everyone is using Tbar style, but this looks awesome.

Hi, do you have a picture from the bike with oem bars and this fairing ? al so what brand of fairing is this, it seems to attach as my HD screen so maybe I can use both on the same mount.

I went back to my stock front wheel. The 19" Talon I purchased ended up being a bad wheel. It was either lopsided from the factory or slightly bent and was causing my bars to shake like a rattler's tail once I hit about 45 mph and got worse from there on up.
Here's a few short clips showing the movement in the wheel. It's most noticeable at the beginning of the video from the right side of the wheel. Looks like the wheel has a hump of sorts. Sorry for the poor video quality taken from my phone.

That does look great. Only other Fat Bob I've seen with bars like this is on the Fat Bob of Micheal Jackson's son on youtube. I think yours looks better than the taller ones in the video. Especially with the Fairing.
