Has anybody swapped out their Fatboy factory front end with something else? Some of that fatter versions of the Perse forks are really cool. I'v done the chrome thing on mine - but I want something that's different but not un-fatboy-like.
Ahhh. That's just it. I've got chrome lowers and chrome tins. It did make a difference and I'm not unhappy with it - but I could use a little more. I don't want the full nacelle, either.
Denbo, if they made it easy to try it out and send it back, I'd do it in a heartbeat. But damn, $2500 on a front end and if it doesn't look right, that'll suck. I've got enough "oops" parts laying around.
RiggidyRaw & PhantomMaxx - that's the one. I also like the HLS (full sleeved hex) one. I think that you'd have to go with the full sleeved versions in order to keep the fat look. Not sure what to use for a headlight then. I think the factory one would be too big without the tins. I'd love it if they had a scratch and dent sale since these things cost half a sporty.
