Thanks guys, I loved my Fat Boy and I am sure there will be times I miss it.

Decided to go to the RK for the big windshield, big bags, cruise control and air ride. My boys want to strat riding with me and I thought the RK would be a better ride for them when we are together.

Hey guys - paying homage to my Fatty...here is what it looked like as I sold it. I had a great time modding it, chrome front end, pipes, Arlen Ness Big Sucker, Danny Grey solo seat and a few other little chromies and do dads.

You can't go wrong with a RK Classic or a Street Glide in my opinion. Very nice bike. Ape that thing!
