Something like this................ All my HD buddies tell me I got a Har-la-saki.

I think the stock CVO Agitator Harley wheel is one of the best "stock" wheels anywhere. I don't plan on swapping my wheels (too much money for some bling) but if I did, I'd have a set of Agitator clones made.

That is slick, I really admire good work. I like the stock fender, But that doesn't mean you can't find something you like better.

I'm not sure if CJ coined the phrase or if I came up with it myself but I call mine a NomaDavidson

Hey bro, if I could I would! If you keep your bike long enough your eventually going to have to replace the fork seals. When that day comes have an 1/8 inch milled off your caliper mounts, cut your spacers down to 1 1/4 inches and slap that 18" street glide wheel on.
Yes folks, you can try this at home...it's just that easy.

That wasn't me, Rick. I did come up with "UltraNomad", though.

Yours makes about 5 votes to keep the stock fender. I like the looks too. Think I'll forget about the Fatboy fender and keep this one on there.

Bill, I took the bracket that the left stock backing plate used, and cut the lower part off, smoothed it out then painted it black. I then took the HD horn's mounting post and rotated it 180* and mounted it to the modified stock bracket, and re-routed the horn wires and plugged the HD horn in. Works great, and is substantially louder than the stock beeper.


Oh yeah.............. I like the look of the stock fender too!
