Rear fender off. Wiring conduit is draped over the socket set. I used a heat gun and gently pulled and it came right off.

Gas tank removed. I used hemostats and vise grips to clamp off crossover fuel line to remove from frame.

You have to get thin before you can get fat. Time to get that fake dual headlight off.

Fat Boy headlight. I couldn't wait to see so just stuck it up there to whet my appetite. Still needs more stuff on the front end though.

Turn signal connector. A 3-place Amp Multilock. I'm getting ready to de-pin this so I can pull the wiring up through the handlebars and get rid of those handlebar mounted turn signals. A safety pin works well for releasing the little tabs inside these things.

Here is first fitment of spotlight bar. The bolt on the 49mm kuryakn clamp sticks out and will interfere with the windshield mounting hardware. I masked the bracket off in prep for a dremel cut off wheel to cut this flush with light bar vertical L-bracket.
