Default 85-90% Done?.....Maybe

Bought this low milage 2017 Fat Bob back in Oct. I've always wanted to do one my way. I finished up the exhaust last night and decided to take her out today even though it was only in the upper 30s. I like it. I'll probably fine tune it a little and maybe some motor work later but for now I know I'm headed in the right direction.

Day after I brought bike home.

Looks good with that single headlight, what brand is it because it looks just like mine. I like the new seat, it that a Lepera?

Light I have no idea. It was on the bike in a different housing when I bought the bike. It worked so good I decided to put it in a different bucket. The seat is a C&C Fastback. Very comfy on my old ***.

I hear you about the cold. I brought home my Street Bob yesterday and my fingers were frozen even with my Harley leather "cold weather gloves" and cold weather glove liners I bought at Dick's sporting goods. Pisses me off about the gloves that was a waste of $100.

Looks good! 85-90% done? Are you trying to convince us? LOL The longer you ride it, the more something will need to be upgraded. Enjoy it and ride the nubbs of the tires.We'll be seeing more upgrades from you in the future. Here's my "stock" 07 Street Bob. Every thing blacked out was cool looking back in Oct 07 . . . then the damn Sons of Anarchy cams out an everything black was sickening to me. SO, chromed mine out.

It wasn't to bad. I have some decent gauntlets. It was about 37 when I took off. I had my face mask on with a sock hat so I probably looked liked something out of an old Mad Max movie. I'm sure I got a lot of looks with those Rineharts sounding off.

Excellent so far, and no, you're never done. I like the looks of the 5 3/4" headlight with the wide front end. What pipes are those?

The head pipes are stock for a Super Glide/Street Bob ect. The front heat shield is for a 06-07 Wide Glide hence no cut out for mid controls. The muffler heat shields are from a Sportster 48. The mufflers are Rinehart 3". It took some research and shopping to put it all together but I like the end result.
