Default My friends in the USA

Hi Everyone, Finally my project has finished. It has been lots of blood, sweats and tears but I love the end result. The difficulty of being based in the UK is that information and availability are very rare so almost everything has to come from all over the work particularly the US which makes it very expensive due to postage and import charges.

I hope you like what you see, I personally love it and it rides sweet although it has been so cold that I haven't been able to ride it much if any recently. I need to take some proper photos in the sun as it really shows off the paint.

Nice bike, what is it or was it, hard to tell after the customisation of it.

Thanks, Guys,
I forgot to mention that the original bike was/is a Fatboy FLSTF 2008 model.
