if you can weld its real simple can do it with a home welder absoluty.
take your time and it will be like taking candy from a baby. when i started i had most of the parts.
my bike was at JD's cycleworks so i was on my way to pick up the rear wheel , tire , rotor i got from a forum member for 150 bucks if i remember correctly. i drove to daves after getting the tire. Dave had the bike on the lift already. we unbolted all the parts and put the swing arm on first bolted right up
put the rear rim on then mocked up the fender. did not fit so dave grinded off rear inner fender supports (horns) .
mocked up the fender and took it from there welded them horns back in place and a little tweaking the fender was on.
the rear rim bolted right up but the belt(05) was too wide. so i went with a chain but if you look on e-bay you can get a narrower belt and pulley. also might have to get a thinner primary gear also dont know.

Cry foul
Yes, I will admit it I edited my first post. It was an oops and a slip ofthe finger. I really did mean to say a Fat Boy, not a fat bob. I really like the look of the big wide tire.
Sorry for the foul
