Default Before and after...

Finally after 6 months my 1992 Fat Boy is back together! There are a few mechanical issues (tail lights/turn signals, leaking rocker box covers) but for the most part it is done! I tried a Fat Boy decal but it wasn't what I wanted and it is in the middle of being removed in the pics. Future plans are for a tan spring seat, tan saddlebags and a tan handlebar bag. Here are the before and after pics...

I was trying to decide to go with the original badges or something more vintage looking. I decided to go with the vintage badge's.

You can do a 40 Mammoth F/R in 16's if you like. I went with 52 Mammoths, 16/18
