Default A Fat train or a Night Boy

Is it a direct bolt on from fat boy fenders to a night train? I wanna put a fatboy front tire on my train. Will that bolt on? Any one done this? Im really curious on the fender cause I wanna buy it so bad but not sure if it bolts on with no mods.

Yep.

Below is '06 Fatboy fenders on my '02 Night Train. The wheels, however, are Black Bike spokers, and the fork is Storz Racing.

You will want to pick up a Fatboy taillight wiring harness to make life a bit easier, though you can do without it, if you're willing to dismantle the NT taillight. Everything else is strictly bolt-on.

Thanx guys. But is it really nesesary to do all that to fit the front wheel. I though An 07 fatboy wheel would bolt on a 07 night train? Or is there suck a wheel I can directly bolt on?

The '07 might have the fork spacing different then my '03.
If you know someone with an 07/08 fatboy....get his
wheel and see if it fits w/o new spacers/brake alignment.
Might work for you..

If I hadn't worked with the 1/4 inch offset my tire would have
ended up rubbing against the fender.

JBT & Blackend, your FBNTs look cool! Good choice with the Black Bike wheels. They're top of the line!
