Anyone price how much for ALL the accessories they listed? Curious how much they are baiting people to spend.

But I do half to say this is the first Fat Bob that I have actually liked the look of.
It looks like Border Cop priced the full setup, wheels, rotors, sprocket, tires. Looks like a pretty good deal compared to a comparable setup from Performance Machine, etc.

This one is also a sweet look for the fat bob. Not as expensive since you don't half to buy new tires, but the custom paint eats up any savings.

Looks cool though. Too bad those damn paint sets are so freakin' expensive.

Wonder if the baffles on those black screamin eagle pipes could be swapped out for something that sounds a little better than the new EPA pussified exhausts. Like an old screamin eagle II baffle, or a big city thunder baffle. Love the black look, just hate the wimpy sound.

Besides the cost ,I think the 18 inch wheels will screw up the excellent handling of the fatbob, But to each their own.

Why would that change the handling, are the width and height that different?

Profile. And weight distribution, as it'll put more weight farther away from the center of rotation, increasing gyroscopic effect
