So, I finally got around to posting a few recent pics of the Fat Boy. New Mustang Squareback seat and LA Choppers 187 pipes. Removed passenger foot pegs and chrome belt guard, as well. All together, it really cleans up the back end and shows more swing arm, which I was going for.

Everyone assumes the pipes are loud, but they're not too bad. With the baffles in, it sounds far too muted, so I've currently got them out. No complaints from anyone, yet. No louder than the 2-1 pipe that was on it when I purchased.
To this day, the loudest pipes I've encountered were the V&H short shots without baffles on my Blackline. The baffles were put back in within 1 day.

I've got a carbed 2002 Softail SS, love the sound with the 510 Cams. I'd get some smooth fender struts and a chrome pulley to set off the left side. I'd slam it down and run a solo seat unless I needed a two up. I like the long rear fender of the Fat Boy, might try that set up on mine at some point.
