I believe it can be done but I've heard that it is too narrow.Best thing would be to take measurements of both.You might need spacers to get it right.

I don't know but hope you can. I hate that rear fender as well. One of the reasons I bought the Street Bob.

Ride Safe.

Keep us posted on what you find out. I love everything about the FatBob except that fender. Bob should be Bob.

I love the reak end of the FatBob and wouldn't bother to have it any other way! Guess I am biased!

You will need a fender, 2 fender struts, tag bracket, and tail light assembly or at least a new base. But yes it can be done.

The only thing I didn't like about the rear end of my FatBob was the rear brake light that stuck out like a male dog's D^*@ So I changed that out. I think it makes it looks much more proportionate.

There was someone on here that has done that. They posted pictures. I guess you would have to do a search. I think it was probably in the last six months or so. Looked good.
