The sensors do stick out but sometimes I will take performance over look.

To the OP, it looks just like most other FatBobs around here. From the video it sounds like most of them too, they all sound loud and fast and have no go. For the sound you were making you should have been pulling harder than in the video.

Although it is a beginning, these are great bikes to use as a canvas and develop some mean machines.

At least you have a good hand helping you (SC-Longhair)

That's still pretty ugly. You'd think they could have put the ports around the back.
