After wheels were preped, the stripe was painted on first, then it was taped off and then the black was applied. The paint has a hardner mixed in. Final coat was a clearcoat. This was done this way so that the stripe is in the paint and not on it.
Ok, does anyone know of an inexpensive way to RAISE the FLSTFB up an inch or two so I can take a corner without leaving scrape marks on the asphalt? I know about replacing the fork guts with the FatBoy and same with the shocks but if I do that I would look first to someone who wants to lower their FatBoy and I'd trade them. Any suggestions short of a lobotomy?
I love the look of the light. Hows riding at night with it? Ive heard it doesnt project well directly in front of the bike. But might just not be aimed right.
Well I checked my install of my short shots I checked the only thing I saw I was able to move the heat shield a little, it was not hitting but I couldn't lift running board. Is there a way that I can move the running board mount out. Can I put spacers between them and frame 1/8 or 3/16 should b enough. Anybody ever done this. Suggestions.
I got the air cleaner from fuel moto in today. I used the stock cover so I don't think there's much point in posting pictures since everybody knows what the stock cover looks like. Hopefully the exhaust and tuner to go with it won't be too much farther behind. It does look kind of different with the back half (stock backing plate) gone. Hopefully it stays more or less water resistant.
Jim, it'll probably stay that way. I need the cover from the rain down here in Florida. Besides I have zero fabrication skills. I barely trusted myself enough to cut some bolts short under my seat with the dremel.
