Default 2010 fatboy low question

hi from across the pond, i've had a deposit down for a new fat boy since midd august and the dealership now has one for viewing. on the flat/matt finish version the headlight shell and pannel are gloss, is this the same with the us version. and gloss finish indicator shells at the back and flat finish on the front, a bit disapointing at first but nothing that cant be fixed. my bike was despached on the 1st of september so hopefully i'll have it early october. replacement pipes are already at the dealer awaiting bike to hang them on.

I haven't seen anything I'd trade my Train for, but I sat on one of those Fatboy Lows at my dealer recently...I liked pretty much everything about it...if I was in the market for a new bike, I'd definitely consider it...

Thumbs up Fatboy-Lo

Yur right about the gloss black headlight and stuff, it does look sorta funny, but it can be painted this winter to match. I have the the SE black mufflers to be installed at delivery also. Not looking for performance, just more pleasing to the eye. some of the stuff the Moco does really makes no sense, except that then they get to sell you all of the extras.

can't wait to pick it up tomorrow, sure hope it aint raining......

When I went to the dealership it was to go put a deposit on the FB Lo they just got in. I rode home on my Night Train and wouldn't trade it for anything. The Lo is a sweet bike, I can't wait to see them around with some mods.
