Great job guys... I glad you all like the engraving all beautiful bikes and all of them with their own style.

I'll need to get some new pix of my ride.

I'm sorry that I had to clarify that, but that's what I'd like to see in this thread.

first; ghostrider, thx, i did do all the cutting, welding and refit..


Jim, i have to consider the exh a "one off ", seeing how it originally came off of a 10' road glide. i removed the cat converter, plug the original pencil o2 sensor holes, cut o2 bungs from a honda car cat converter, welded them into the RG pipe, designed and fabed rear muffler support bracket and rear pipe support bracket.. all without damaging or destroying any part of the original fatboy mounting, frame or exhaust.. all original parts can be reinstalled in a matter of a hr maybe.. the original thread can be found under my stats.... "topics of froggyfatboy"



i do like the above foot clutch and axe shifter, though it seems it could be deadly to the boys in the event of a left side lay down..
