Sorry, I've been busy with work, finishing up my Fat Boy Lo, and sleeping occasionally. She's back together, scarily well. I actually finished March 30th, 2 days before the April 1st deadline! Now, after 400 miles and the first oil change, every ride just gets better. I'll dyno after 1k miles...

I'll post better pictures tomorrow... supposed to be nice out. I don't mind questions, how to's, how did you's, or compliments...

I HAVE to thank:
Dan Baisley - Baisley Hi-Performance (Heads, valve-train, pushrods, piston machining and many, many times answering questions, giving advice, and superb brainstorming.)
Axtell - Case machining / clearancing, pistons, rings, cylinders
Wood Performance - Knight Prowler Cams, lifters, compression releases
Fuel Moto - Power Vision Tuner, wide band O2, Zippers air cleaner kit
Horsepower Inc. - Intake, throttle body, fuel injectors (a work of art, I might add...) (VERY fast shipping)
House of Harley-Davidson - Bassani exhaust, SE Compensator, plugs, wires
AIM Corp. - VP clutch
Energy One Clutches - Big Twin clutch pack
