    Hey all!
    I'm not really new to the forum - I've been a silent watcher/reader for several years, but I have come across a dilemma that I need honest opinions and advice, about.

    I am due to take delivery of a 2018 Fatboy in the two-tone Legend Blue colour, on Friday, but there is a component that, after research, has me slightly concerned...I have OEM locking saddlebags added as part of the total cost, but I am a bit conflicted with regard to the rear indicator relocation - Specifically, what the bike looks like when the saddlebags are removed...I have this gnawing gut feeling that it will somehow look completely wrong.

    I have yet to see a single photo or image despite much Googling, so I'm wondering just how eyesore-ish, the chrome indicator relocation bracket/mount, will look against the satin.

    Hi DB. Welcome to the forum. You've got a humdinger of a problem there. Just do it / get it and worry later.

    Just an additional thought. Had a look at them, I wonder if you could wire wheel it to dull the surface chrome
