You should have ground off the rivits and slammed the front fender, makes the whole project look slammed and keeps the full suspension....

I like yours, but I did not want that look for mine. Something just dosen't look right when the front fenders slammed unless it is a short fender.

I'm probably going to weld a dove tail on the front, but I won't know for sure until I finish stretching the rear fender. Then I will see how it matches up and adjust accordingly.

BOBBER, camara phone bro. and yes it could use a lens cleaning lol.

Casey, My wife said I'm to obsessed to sell it lol, we will see. Although I've been looking at some wheels at the HDWheels site. I'm also modding another bike at the same time, so I have to bounce back and fourth and slows it up a bit ($).

please don't take it that way, I was only talking about my bike and my theme, sorry bro. I do like the way your sled is set up. It's all good and please don't stop giving your opinions, good or bad, that way I get perspectives from all angles.

I would like the black better to match. If not, strip it all down and clear coat the metal. Agree with lowering also.

I disagree too. The Fatboy fender distinguishes it. JIMSFBL was the baddest lookin lo before. Looked mean. Now its lookin more like a blacked out deluxe with fatboy wheels A Fatboy ain't supposed to look like a deluxe is it? To each his own. Hey ya gotta do what ya gotta do. More pros from others that cons. I'm a con...well I am a former con...vict.

Yes Fatburger it is real gator and if you look closer at my dash, those are real gator teeth also, thanks for your comps and your opinions. I don't really expect everyone to like it especially guys that like to keep the fatboy look.

When I'm done stretching the rear fender 9", I will then go back to the front and redo the bottom of the fender to match the back.

I do respect the guys that like vintage fat boys though. It will take me at least a year before I get done with all the mods on this sled. I promise it won't look like a heritage or a fat boy when I'm done lol.

Oh, and the wheels are going next winter.
