that's a plain one for a Fatboy. Not a perfect fit, but close enough. I have one on the front, as well. That one has been on for years. I bought the pair of them a long time ago and never got around to putting on the rear one....

One of my winter projects is done...I stripped everything off the fenders and used a product called Ice liquid clay bar. I'm pretty amazed with the results. Took off all the years or road grime that just a washing wouldn't touch, and you could feel the finish getting smoother as you worked on it. I also put a rear fender tip on and found a nice silver concho...is this "Indianizing"?

Thanks for the concern.

I was just looking out for your bike man!  Wouldn't want it to be impounded and then have it "disappear" while in custody! ;)

.....and maybe saving you a few bucks!

Ratman, you might want to look at local laws regarding rear running lights colors.  Those lights have amber lenses on them, and here in Indiana, and many states as well, it's illegal to have amber running lights on the rear.  The quick fix is to swap out the amber lenses for red ones, which are legal.  Ebay is your friend on this!

When I first started thinking of this I decided to check into this question. First off went and looked at a lot of new bikes and noticed that if they had amber signal light lens they had big huge rear tail lights. I could not see any that were the way I was looking so went to the next level, went to the three shops in town that actually do safety checks and inspections prior to plates being issued to a bike, I explained slowly what I was planning on doing and what lens covers are required, ok.
Then I went to the local police station and asked to speak with anyone familiar with motorcycle and traffic issues, well the 2 officers I talked to could not have lit a 1157 bulb on a good day, never got a firm answer.
So then I went to the OPP station, (like your State Troopers).....again asked for someone versed in the laws of motorcycle laws.....he said it was not a real law anyplace. Ok thanks for your time. and left....
So anyway I am going to go with my own thoughts here and replace the amber with red, because the extra red will be more visible, and really good in bad weather. When the signal lights flash it will be even more visible and eye catching then amber.

Thanks for the concern.
