RE: SE Fatboy
Mine is a 2005 SE Fat Boy. You can look in my album and might be able to tell what the tach mount and bars look like. If need be, I can take a better picture and post it.

RE: SE Fatboy
Tom,
Thanks. Thats what I wanted to see. I am about to order that set up for mine and sell the Anniversery bars on it now. The whole thing with tach is going to really rip into me for about $800.00.I just putthe Anniversery bars on and feel they are too high for the look I was after. Regular beach bars are too wide to fit through the little barn where my scoot lives when not being riden.
How do you like the riding postion? Do you sit straight up, or lean slightly forward?

RE: SE Fatboy
I sit straight up. My bike fits me like a custom fit. I am 5'11". My seating position is low, with the combination of the SE seat and the lowered rear. If I had the stock Fat Boy seat and normal ride height, I might have to lean toward the bars a bit. I have no problems concerning width, where I keep my bike. If you care about the width of your setup to clear getting into your little barn, The mirrors and hand levers stick out further then the tips of my handlebars. My bars are approximately 34 1/2" wide, but my hand levers and my mirrors are approximately 40 1/2" wide tip to tip.

RE: SE Fatboy
Thanks. That's what I needed to know. My current set up is 44-1/2 from the tip of my morrows so your set up should be more narrow. Wwouldn't want to trade would you?
Cource, I would give you $$$ for the tach.

RE: SE Fatboy
Don't blame you. I didn't think you would go for it, but didn't hurt to ask. After Christmas, I'll have the same set up.
