Default I finally did it!

Just wanted to say hey. I picked up a 2007 Pearl Black Fatboy just today. I've being lurking for a while now and this is a great place for info;the comments on here really helped me make up my mine. This week I'll be installing the rear turn signal reloctors for the detachable back rest and saddle bags, any advice?


Thanks

Welcome, and nice choice on bike and color! When you start looking for saddle bags, you may want to check out Fox Creek Leather. They have some really nice products, and exceptional customer service.

To quote Yogi Berrea concerning buying mods "It ain't over till it's over" and it ain't ever over.
Nice bike, I almost bought that color.

I'm getting the factory saddle bags that match the seat. I had those, the nostagia windshield, and the backrest rolled into the deal. They gave me 20% off any accessories that I bought.
