That is the same color as mine my fatboy is. I am guessing the guy put a bigbore kit in it.
Actually yours is deep cobalt blue... I think... which is totally different than cobalt blue in my eye.. in fact I am now looking at a 2006 deep cobalt blue, injected, with a screaming eagle 6 speed 35k for $9500... with HD bags, windshield, and some other stuff.. Hope to see it later today... Pretty sure this is gonna be the one.

What makes you think that?
The owner has passed on and the family is selling.. they thought it was a screaming eagle but the dealer said no. It was listed for $15k.. and now relisted.

Another option 
I weld .. he'd sell me the frame piece I need for $350.

All told Id have like $8500 into it Id guess. Could just put fatboy tins on it from ebay for $700.

I would think a stock 88 would have a hard time with a 6 speed. it has a couple thousand extras with it.

You know, Ive been researching 6 speeds and here is what I've come to understand:
1) you dont want to use 6th until you hit 70mph
2) you lose MPG in 6th..
I think 5th is the same as 5th in a 5 speed trans.. I think... 1:1 I think..
The loss of MPG might be because guys are shifting too early and lugging..
Id really like to know what to look for as far as a big bore... they have no receipts at this time. (though I may be able to get them at some point).
EDIT:
Table 1. Gear Ratios
GEAR STOCK 5-SPEED SE 6-SPEED
First 3.210 3.210
Second 2.209 2.209
Third 1.572 1.572
Fourth 1.226 1.226
Fifth 1.000 1.000
Sixth N/A 0.885
