I like it but the chrome exhaust and lower fork sliders have to go.

If that's what someone wants, go for it. Personally, it doesn't appeal to me, but HD has other models that I like a lot less.

I don't like the blacked out look IMO, however they did a nice job with it. I like the metal tank badge. I am just a chrome lover.

Meh, but then again I've never been a big fan of the Fatboys anyway.
I see that the factory left just enough chrome so guys will have to buy the black covers to black it out properly.

I like it overall but they could of taken it one step further. It could use another 1" drop on the **** end and a big black Nacelle headlight. A set of DNA fat spoke mammoths would really set it off--and I still like the completely solid fatboy wheel without the 50 cal bullet holes better. Of course they don't want to pimp it out too much or you won't visit their parts dept. for those extras.
