RE: Custom Fat Bob
ORIGINAL: joemacro65
He said it needed to be widened 1" because it was not wide enough to fit onto the fender struts. Maybe the struts on the FB and WG come off at a different angle than other dynas.
Also, he said he would sell it for $20,000 once the fender was painted....
we'll see...lol

RE: Custom Fat Bob
I can see this wont die....lol. Again, this is my friends bike and not mine.
Anway to answer some questions:
- It wont take the stock seat unless you drill a hole further back on the fender.
- New seat didnt really change the riding position..still pretty much in the same place as with stock 2-up seat.
- If you are serious about having him do the work on your fender...all I can do is ask him if hes interested in doing it.

RE: Custom Fat Bob
Ashville: The lowering brackets are home made. I think he made em out of angle iron. The fender struts didnt match up so, he had to widen the rear fender. Thats why its so wide.
I think the the stock fat bob fender is the same as wide glide and is apparently wider than regular dyna fender.
From what I understand, the dealer told him "it should fit". But, i didnt. If anyone has done it without modding the fender I'd like to know how.
