DB's Fat Bob
Finally got around to taking some pictures and posting them up. Hope you like. Just some quick notes on things that were added/changed: Upper and lower rockers; bike covers kit; Boss Bags; black wrinkle horn cover; bridge head covers; flush fuel gauges; black hand levers; new HD diamond grips; Heat Demons control for heated grips; chrome lower belt guard and chrome sprocket cover (bag removed for visual); axle covers; and other stuff you'll probably notice on your own.

RE: DB's Fat Bob
I don't like it. Too many ideas I was planning on using myself[sm=smiley2.gif]. Keep that thang out of Wisconsin, OK?
What did the rocker boxes set ya back? I got a friend who I think will help me install them, so that doesn't matter, just the parts prices. Can you show a pic of the head bridge covers, not sure what I'm looking for, is that more chrome or more black??
The timing and derby covers are still the stock ones, right??
Also I wasn't planning on heated grips, but what's the deal with the "Demon" controls or what ever, is that some upgrade to the stock switch? I assume that's the lighted up thingie in the pic of the controls.

RE: DB's Fat Bob
Too funny. Thanks for the compliments.
Gilly - to answer your questions:
It's in Cali so don't worry about seeing it unless at Sturgis.
Rocker boxes were about $120 per set and then you'd need some gaskets and two o-rings for a few more bux. I installed them by myself (don't do it with a full tank of fuel) without any problems.
The bridge head covers match the heads exactly so it blends very well. Give me a day to get a close up picture up of them.
Timing and derby covers are not stock. I forget the style but the originals were just a polished finish.
The lighted switch is the 4 level power source for the heated grips. It replaces the stock front clutch clamp thereby making it look stock.

RE: DB's Fat Bob
The heated grips were easy to do with the Heat Demons. After doing it, I would almost bet for sure that I could do the HD one even though they say 'does not work on internally wired bars'. Given the Fat Bob stock dragbars are fairly straight and after doing the other install I really think you could go that route.The HD wires are definately bigger but there is enough room to get them through. I will probably try that at some time.
