Default Fat Bob

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum and a virgin to Harley. I've been checking out this forum for about a month now and have to say extremely informative. I ordered my Candy red sunglo FWD controls,in Feb. I spoke to the dealer a few days ago and says it ships out April 3, looks like I'll be the proud daddy of a Fat Bob in the next week or so. I'm real excited and can't wait. Never interested in a Harley until I saw my friend planning a harley trip on his computer and there she was. It was love at first sight. Went to the dealer sat on one and the Fat Bob said, your mine. Well enough of my love story. I'm Looking at Rush 1.75",Ness Big Sucker and a tuner don't know which tuner though. Hear great things about DOBTECH, SERT, Looking for litttle more sound and acool running HOG. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Again this is my first HARLEY and looking to enjoy every bit of HER. Thanking everyone in advance, love this forum. Will send pics as soon as I get her ugly FAT A$$ home ! LOL

Welcome Lineskinner.
I have an 06 Super Glide Custom with Rush 2.25, Ness Big Sucker and Power Comander III. Runs like a raped ape and good and LOUD.
Good luck with your new scooter.
