Default 08 Fat Bob

Has anyone ever switched out the front forks on the Fat Bob? I'm interested in possible springer front end and if this will work?? Idea, examples, resources???

From what I understand from talking to some mechanics all of the necks have the same size hole so any front end will fit from soft tail to sportster but you can’t always trust the guys at the steelership.

I personally like the fat bob the way it is, BUT post some pics if you do it. I would love to see the result.

IMHO........I like a little stronger front end on my bike than what a springer can give me. Plus I like the big front tire.
