Thanks in advance!!!

P.S. Palm trees are nice!

You don't have to replace it. Just pay attention when you park on hills. I still run the stock one.

Drove up to Laramie yesterday and picked up my 2011 Fat Boy Lo, Denim Black, ABS and Security, $16,252.00. I think that was a good deal and (so far) I recommend them.

Drove it home in the back of my truck with the fobs too far from the bike so the lights blinked all the way home (6 hours) and now it won't start. They recommend the *Harley* trickle charger that hooks into the pig tail. I will get one next time I'm in town, but I'm about 75 miles to the nearest dealer and live in the middle of the mountains. I do have some other chargers for cars and trucks, etc and I can get to a Napa 25 miles away for some after-market, generic deal. Can anyone recommend an alternative to the Harley deal? They said the Harley deal is a real slow amp delivery and easy on their battery which I don't want to f*ck up using the wrong charger. Is it safe to use something else or should I wait?

Thanks.

I hope to get photo's up soon.

My seat is the Sundowner 2up seat, if you were asking me.


@ Dave: It's detachable, right? :P I don't know if I'm sold on it. I mean, I like the functionality, just not sure if I'm sold on it on YOUR bike...

Yes, it's detachable and will be off when the warm weather comes back.

Dave - I really like it! I think I'll get one instead of a shield...I was inches from buying a Street Glide so I already had an appreciation for the style.

So, if you want to sell it in the near future...cash in hand...LOL

Sure thing. The guy that is doing mine said it would cost $50 for the primary cover, but that it should be less for any other parts because he has to order in the HD wrinkle black so that it matches. I was going to go with denim all over, but I like the contrasting blacks with the gloss and flat in there as well. I'll post pics as things come along. Thanks for the cable info!

Also, would you mind sharing part numbers if these guys don't convince you too sell?

Or are these it?
