Kind of excited! Dropping the bike off to get its first mods done:
V&H 2 into 2, SE Heavy Breather, Race Tuner. When this is being done I will have the Transmission Cover and Primary Cover Powder Coated.
Can't wait to see how it looks!!!
This thread is awesome I have been reading for the past week and the information in here is outstanding and a huge help for this newbie.

Yeah i took a few simple pictures already, one with the tank where it normally is, then one at the spot where I measured the 1.5" lift would be. It's so subtle, but looks really nice. If i were feeling really ambitious I would relocate my turn signals to the forks, so I could do the 2" kit..but i'm not that ambitious. I like my turn signals where they are.. also I already have the mounting hardware to the windshield on the forks, so it's already a bit crowded

Hey Josewales!
I'm also looking into the new HD whiskers frame mount highway pegs vs. the Kuryakan one's. Anyone have any experience with these (these are the frame mounted, not the engine guard or floorboard one's)?
Thanks!

Just got an email from Sherry from Danny Gray concerning what they can do to modify the buttcrack to allow the 2 screws to be used....looks like there is a problem fitting one to the lo in the first place. She is refering to a pic I sent her with 2 fenders screws showing directly behind the seat.
Email;
This pics looks like our buttcrack solo for the 84-99 or 00-06 softail (not the wide tire 200mm softail like your 2011 fatboy lo
That seat is mounted to the bike with side mounted bolted to the frame
The fatboy lo does not allow that type of mount
How to mount the buttcrack solo for your fatboy lo would be the biggest challenge because theres also a module that sits on the front part of the fender
Hope this makes sense
Let me know if I can assist you further

Thanks for the advice - I'm getting the detachable low sissy bar, backrest and luggage rack more for longer trips - my better half and me do a lot of weekend and overnight trips.
I'm also looking into the new HD whiskers frame mount highway pegs vs. the Kuryakan one's. Anyone have any experience with these (these are the frame mounted, not the engine guard or floorboard one's)?
