Fatboy Build
« on: October 21, 2010, 12:41:33 AM »

Here's a update on my Fatboy build. It started Jan 15 of this year and getting close to reassemble. The engine is being build to a 103 SE Stage 4, the jugs went to Ultra Coat for powder and then to Diamond Cut. The paint is original with real flames added in. The swingarm went to Todd's Cycle for chrome and to be reworked so the drive plate and brake rotor would both be on the left side to leave the right side open for full view of PM wheels. The frame went to Chrome Masters for chroming. All new chrome front end, with new evil Ape Hangers bars custom solo seat. Most everything else has been chromed or powder coated. Air cleaner is PM, exhaust is V&H big radius 2-into-2. OK, this is where I can use some help, the engine casing is still original black but I really want to do something with that. I would like to polish them but the maintenance is a pain. I'm thinking of powder coat them sliver like our CVO's or something else, any ideas that others have done. Thanks for you help. Here are some pic's

OK, the last piece of the puzzle is on it's way to Ultra Coat. The engine case is going to be powder coated orange the same as the jugs.

Mark, as you know HD Louisville is doing the build and the GM told me that the bike would never see the inside of my barn because it will set in the center of the showroom floor. I can't wait to get the last few parts back from Chrome and PowderCoat.
