Default 2018 Fat Bob Customized

Would like to see some customizations on the 2018 Fat Bob M8 114 in white. Like a reduced rear fender, single seat and headers.

@blackSP: how do you like the street cannons without baffles? Is there a big difference after removing them? I'm still struggling if I should keep them or invest in the Jekyll&Hide exhaust. I like the sound even with the baffles when I'm pushing the Fat Bob but whenever I'm on the road with other Harleys with open systems I'm feeling like on an E-Bike

They could have been a bit louder to my taste but you definitely hear them. Best is that combined with a k&n and supertuner it gives you significant power boost and makes the bike run really nice.

Different strokes, but i like the stock version more than what i have seen.

2018 Fat Boy is probably the best looking 2018 HD put out.
