RE: Fat Bob Mods

I have the same bike. Where did you get the fender? And how did you lower it? Bike looks great.

Thanks

they said an option for lowering the front end was to simply loosen the triple tree clamps and slide the forks up a little.&nbsp\\;

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING

&nbsp\\;
That's what we did on my wife's Bob: We lower the front by 1 1/4 inch.

Looks like a stock Dyna fender to me. Just filled in the tail light and holes.

RE: Fat Bob Mods

Can't be a stock Dyna fender cause the tire for the Fat Bob is wider than any of the Dyna's.&nbsp\\; From what I hear, most have had to take a stock round fender, cut it in half and add an inch to the diameter.

The 180 tire will fit under a stock dyna fender....its just real tight and you might have to re-route the wiring depending on how much it has been lowered.....there are several dyna riders here that have added the 180 to their rides.
