Default Fatbob Headlight(s): Opinions?
OK, so I've been wondering about whether people really do like the dual headlights on the Fatbob. Do you want to change them to a single unit? Anyone have pics of their machine converted to a single light?

Changed mine to a Fatboy headlight. Not that I don't like the dual headlight just wanted some change. Can always switch back if I want but I really do like this one. Front view in sig and then a side view in pic.

That would explain why I bought mine after sitting on it in the showroom and looking down at the frontend.

I hate them makes the Fat Bob look like a euro street fighter IMO and not very Harley just my opinion i switched mine out ASAP to a 7 inch light and PCd it gloss black. I also think that because of the size of the forks you need a big head light and anything smaller looks lost beetween the for legs
