Real nice work bike looks great...love the simplicity. &nbsp\\; Those graphics are a joke...looks like something you would find on the side of some kids Geo tracker.

Well I can appreciate Harley's Art-Deco Flash Gordon graphics to a degree, but in this case I went for simple because that's what I am, a simple&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;man

RE: Personalized Fatboy

Mike, I like it! couple of questions....what did you do to the graphics? paint over them or sand them off or repainted the tins with the logo masked off? I like the looks of the side mount license plate holder, which one is that? and finally....do you find yourself leaning a little forward with that seat and bar setup?

Nice, tasteful, but the wholes on the fender, well, they gotta go.&nbsp\\; Home Depot has the rubber plugs, check in plumbing...

RE: Personalized Fatboy

Again, thanks for the good comments brothers. I promise I will plug them holes!
&nbsp\\;
dugan, I masked around the graphics, roughed up with 400grit, and coated with semigloss black.
The sideplate mount is from kuryakyn.
I have long arms and the stock bars left me with overly bent elbows,&nbsp\\;this setup is perfect for me.
