HOLY ****! That is hands down one of the nicest Fat Bob's Ive seen. I'm not a fan of the twin headlight but it really works on your bike. Nice execution!

Thank you all!

In the beginning I did not like the dual heatlight ... but he looks so tough /hooligan/ that I decided it was best for this bike.

Incredible job! Lots of great ideas! I really like the tank badge...how was that done? Do you mind sharing how much money you have in the project? I assume you have a buddy with a metal shop, CNC etc?

Whoever made those machined parts should set up shop online...way too few aftermarket items out there for the Fat Bob.

Good luck

Thank you so much for sharing that info, I honestly did not expect that but it is something I can take a machinist! I am going to copy that idea, very well executed and saves me some time in other areas.

This is a technology in which they are made: http://www.crystaldome.com/ ... Cheap and effective. A style of writing I did in a vector program / Corel DRAW /

The entire amount spent on this project is about $ 7000.

That was more than expected by about $ 2000, but the work was started and couldnt stop. This amount includes all costs of buying parts, producing some of them, painting, skilled services, etc.
