Raise a Fat Boy Lo?
My buddy has an opportunity to by a '13 Fat Boy Lo for a great price. Problem is, he's 6'1" so the Lo will be, well, too low. Is it possible to raise it? Is it as simple as getting a different seat and changing the suspension, or are the frame or other components different sizes than the regular Fat Boy?

Good to know. I re-did my search on this forum and found a Fat Boy vs. Fat Boy Lo thread: it looks to me like the main differences are cosmetic (black vs. chrome) and a slightly lower seat. If there's no difference in suspension, then it sounds like he could get a good fit just by changing out the seat.

I think he'll like it as is. I'm 6', 32
inseam. The floorboards might be sit a little too much back but that's about it. A Corbin solo seat will sit about 2" higher than stock seat so that's one option.
