Thanks guys! BTW, the ride was great today! Got hot today, but bike rode great. And as someone said, I didn’t spend as much on the refresh as I would have to get a new bike, but it sure feels new to me! I’ll enjoy this for awhile, then the Fatboy gets some attention, lol. Life IS good!

Looks fantastic. The inner fairing looks different, wanna see one in the wild to really see how it looks. Seeing the fat front tire makes me wanna put it on mine.

Great looking ride, OP. I've been seriously thinking about buying a pair of those Harley floorboards.

Personally not a fan of the fat front wheel and tire but other than that it looks good.

Thanks! The side covers are one off custom made. The FBI drop seat came with the standard side covers. I wanted them to flow into the bags like you see now days. No one made them. I taped cardboard onto the existing covers to the shape I wanted and had a friend fiberglass over it. When I got them back I trimmed them to match the angle of the bags. When they were red, the paint started to bubble up at the seam between the fiberglass and the ABS plastic (one of the reasons I had for the bike repaint). Luckily, the painter of the blue scheme (Ted the Painter) knew how to fix it and redid the fiberglass and I trimmed it again. It was a lot of work, and I couldn’t have gotten it done without my guys helping me. But in the end, it was just what I wanted. So totally worth it, lol. Thanks for noticing!
