Default RAT SOFTAIL from Australia

Ongoing project for 10 years now...my leatherwork, Mustang 3.3 gallon tank,chopped fat boy back gaurd, 4" overs, 5°rake, rattlecan paintjob ....07 FXST.
Akrapovic 2 into 1 pipe...converted from EFI to S&S E series and Altman stand alone ignition..nasty slow idle and no more stealership diagnostic bullshit.
Before conversion, rake etc.....my leatherwork..used and still regularly abused.
I'm lucky enough to own an original 84 FXST and a 17 M8 Streetglide but this nasty little girl will always be my favourite.
Old enough to know better.
Have I been doing this my whole life??...not yet!!!

Not bad but I've seen "rattier" rat bikes.

Looks pretty sweet...and more reliable than a real "rat bike."
