Bought it new. Never really cared for the solid wheel. Bike has always fit like a glove, handles very well.

Fat Spokes look great on an FL.. Don't think so on an FX...

Not keen on fat spokes myself, prefer cast wheels.

The bike has the lean look to it, fat spokes would be trying to achieve the opposite (fat) look IMO.
I like it as is.
