Default Fatbob Rims.

Quick question. Will 2010 Fatbob rims fit a 2009 Fatboy? I like the looks of the rim, and from what I have seen, they look good with WWW, and have the advantage of being able to run dual discs up front. Not looking for a lot of extra work, but if I could make it work with a minimum amount of fabrication, I think they would fit in well with my vision.

For dual rotors, a new right side fork slider with caliper mounts is needed. Which one are you going to use ?
There are none the 'match' the lefthand side, so you would need to get a set of sliders from a Touring model.

Forum member wachuko installed FatBob wheels on his FLSS Slim, so I would think you can get them to fit on a Fatboy.
Here's what he used:
Install of Fat Bob wheels. Part list:

(1) Hub cap - Part No. 44447-00 This is for the front wheel.
(5) Screws for Hub cap - Part No. 3655A (I have these in chrome when I ordered them and found out that the new rotor came with chromed bolts)
(1) Front Wheel - 43300254-WHL,FR,SLOT,MACH,GBLK,16X
(1) Front Wheel Install kit - 42400008-KIT, WHEEL INSTALLATION F
(1) Front Tire - Shinko SR777 Reinforced - Size: 130/90B16 73H
(1) Rear Wheel - 40900261-WHL,RR,SLOT,MACH,GBLK,16X
(1) Rear Wheel Install kit - 43878-08B-KIT-WHL INSTALL,RR,25MM A
(1) Rear Tire - Shinko 777 HD Rear Tire - 150/80-16/Blackwall
(2) Valve Stem Assembly - Part No. 43157-83A
(2) Nut - Part No. 54321-85

His bike had ABS, but I'm assuming yours does not, so the parts list above may not be totally correct for your application.
This info comes from wachuko's "My Mods Thread" located here:

hope this helps,
