I have a question for you guys. I just bought a 11 Fatboy lo and when looking at it from behind, the back tire and fender do not line up centered, if that makes sense.. Im wondering if this is a problem with anybody elses, or? Its almost to the point of rubbing on the right side when sitting on the bike. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
might want to take a lazer level or something and make sure the belt is going straight towards the primary, and isn't twisting or bending at all..that's really how you know if it's not lined up properly

I have noticed the local LEOs shutting down their bikes at lights. During a parade a few weeks ago, a couple of riders I know had their bikes overheat. It's also another reason I did not want to participate in the parade.

I checked out a "blue" 2012 Lo this past weekend. However, I didn't like it since the tins around the headlight were still vivid black. The forks and wheels were black as well. The derby cover was also different since it had 103 on it.
Speaking of the Lo getting television attention I saw a pic of Gerard Butler w/Jessica Biel riding 2 up on a Lo on TMZ. It was bone stock so atleast I know mine is better than his.
I don't know how you guys ride in hot weather with all the gear on. Last year in Sturgis I saw people with full leather on in 100* weather. Maybe my swim trunks and flippy floppys are the reason why I get weird looks from bikers on those hot days?

i wear boots because i notice at a stop i sometimes catch myself putting my ankles really close to the primary or the pipes.. i wear gloves because they saved my palms the one time i went down.. i wear jeans because it doesn't hurt as bad when a wasp or fly or condor smacks into my leg when i'm riding

Hey all just have a quick question for those that have put apes on their Lo's. I am in the middle of putting some 14" apes on my 2010 and was wondering what size cables and wire extenders you used? Any help would be great.
