Their site lists 722-1002 "air tail" to fit all non-springer FLST's, that includes Fatboys.

Don't know about fit but this is the first thing that pops up when you Google Progressive Air Tail.

Well the link isn't working cause it's from v-twin forum.......HDforum must be blocking it. Anyway not good news about them. Google and you'll see.

Ooh er! OK, I'll avoid, thanks. Shame, they are dirt cheap on Amazon. I have Arnotts on my V-Rod, and they are excellent. But also expensive, and I feel they are a bit vulnerable underneath the bike...

Anyway, it can wait, I have other jobs first, but I know I need to upgrade the suspension at some point and the price was right!
