Default 2018 Fat Bob parts

Well, my personal 2018 Fat Bob is no longer so fat. In shedding this weight, the entire front end came off, along with the rear wheel...so far.

Parts are up for sale, or maybe, just maybe, some sort of trade.

I need to get a tuner of some sort on the bike. I also am looking to slim down the rear end, the fender and struts.

Pictures are coming. Probably tomorrow.

Got a chance to get the frontend together and take pictures. As it is, I would rather do local, semi-local first (Pittsburgh, Pa area) because this assembly is 100 pounds. Very heavy! Which means it get sent freight (who is going to pay for that?) or I break it down, and ship in sections (which will still be expensive) through UPS.

So pricing. This is going to be the kicker. Having just wrapped up my employment at an HD dealership in the parts department, I'm well aware of what the cost is for this assembly. Retail for brand new, mint condition parts that would make this frontend up (not including all thr hardware and miscellaneous items, just the main components) comes to a whopping $4,460!?! Take 20% off that (what we would offer during, say, Black Friday) and total only comes down to $3,792.

Being this was used on my bike for 11,xxx miles, and in very good, but not mint condition, I think $2,000 is fair.

I would rather sell as a whole unit, for now. I can see someone bolting this frontend onto something like, a new Sport Glide, or Dyna, or maybe an FXR. So I would rather sit on it as it is for now.

I also have the rear wheel, but be forewarned, if you want to use it on anything other than a 2018+ narrow Softail, I do NOT think it will work. The hubs on these new Softails are WIDER at the pulley side, and not asymmetrical like wheels in the past.

Price reduced to $1,500 FIRM. I am willing to drive, within reason, to meet up, to keep from having to ship. Located in the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area.
