I am digging the grips though.. still not as tacky as the stock rubber but good just the same...
Dude which crash bar is that? I wanna get one. Thanks. Ur bike looks sic.

Thanks brother. I got the dealer to throw in the sissy bar and all the hardware with the purchase of the bike.

Wish I knew before.

Im looking to get a Cycle Visions Eliminator taillight. Anyone have experience with this? It looks pretty flush and i light that i can get rid of the stock turn signals. Anything better out there for a full plate mount brake light combo?

This thread is starting to be my morning, afternoon and night ritual.
Am i in trouble???

BTW, have a question.

Where are you guys mounting your EZ Passes on the Fatty???
Is there a quick detach that i can mount to the bars or steering head?
Would like to have something thats easy off and on when i know I'm going thru tolls and can easily put on before the ride.


Thanks.

Originally I just zip tied mine to the risers and it seemed to work fine, but not 100% sure because i recently got a few bills from EZPass for my bike. I could have ran out of trips since my card expired and they never got the renewal slip until 2 weeks after my card expired.

I've heard of some guys putting their EZ Passes in windshield bags that attach to the front handlebars. I haven't tried it yet but am looking for a similar solution.

Did a quick search and found these.
Seems a bit expenssive for what it is.
But seems like a simple and clean design.
