Fatboy mod ideas??? (pics)
Hey guys,
I have recently acquired a 1992 Fatboy that I have been wanting to modify and need some suggestions. Currently, all I have done is remove the sissy bar, passenger pillon, gas cap medalions, and reflectors (yes, they are shown in these pics, but I have removed them...don't throw me to the fire just yet!)
I have a new fender bib, swing arm bag, and tank panel on the way from So Kustom Leather Worx. I'm thinking of lowering the rear a little, getting a new seat, and possibly mods to the lighting.
Would love some advice. Love the chrome, but would like for the bike to look a bit more rugged. Any suggestions???
Thanks in advance for any help. Love this forum!!!

Ross,
Rule #1 Loose the side reflectors!
Afte that look through the thousands of Fatboy pics on the Forum and see what you like and maybe don't like. You'll get a lot of fantasic ideas. Send a PM to anyone who has a style you like.

Thanks for the reply. I have removed the reflectors. The pics were taken a day before I removed them. Funny how something so small makes such a difference.
BTW, that's a bad a** bike you got there! What kind of breather is that?

take a seat in your garage, drink a few beers and look at your bike. get a vision of what you think a FL schould look like and where you would like to go with it, cruise the fatboy pic threads for ideas. then proceed to make your credit card beg for mercy........
