Looks a lot better with the solo seat. I have to wear a backpack daily, and it rests on the passenger pillion. I wish I could go to a solo seat too.

TLB ya' know I gotta mess with you.Have you thought about a slightly larger swingarm bag to lose said pack?? I did and found that most of the stuff I would pack up? Fit in the swingarm sack.

YEAH!! Fatboys RULE!! I did almost the same thing this spring too!! I just put the docking hardware, detatchable backrest, and signal relocation kit on mine. My daughter and son like to ride and when I go on trips I attach my Tour pac backwards on the backreat and use it as a driver backrest!!
A solo seat does make a Fatboy VERY sexy.

I like the solid wheel in the back and Thunderstar in front.

I wanted an open wheel in front, but wanted to keep the beefy feel
and the Thunderstar just fit the bill for me.
I actually bought 2 Thunderstars and then after I put the front one on I decided I liked it that way so much I left it that way and sold the
second one
