Well, after weeks of work and troubleshooting, the fender conversion from my stock FXDF, to the chopped FXDWG, is complete. Listed below are the H-D part #'s, as well as descriptions of other parts I needed to complete this mod.
Gloss black rear fender - H-D part # - 60519-10DH
Fender support cover RH/LH - H-D part # - 59461-10/59459-10
Spacer for support cover (x2) - H-D part # - 11896
Inner support bracket (x2) - 60936-10
LED edge light kit - H-D part # - 73416-11
TC Bros side mount license plate - sku # - 107-0006 - amzn.to/2IQueBM
TC Bros shock mount bracket - sku # - LP109UN -
amzn.to/2A5hq7u
Custom Dynamics LED license plate bolts - amzn.to/2QET6Pw
I used 16 gauge wire for splicing the turn signals and license plate bolt lights to the stock wiring harnesses. I also used a soldering iron, and solder to do the splicing. I also protected the splices with heat shrink.

I've been waiting for this video and it was worth it. Great job sharing this with us and it looks great!!!
Thanks, bud! Both the mod and the video were a lot of work, but I'm happy with how both turned out. Thanks for hanging in there! :)
Excellent job you did on changing the fender out I think it looks great I probably will do mine that way eventually 👍👍👍👍
I did the same thing on my 2009 Fat Bob, Huge difference, I also did some custom paint and Jr. Ape's so now I call my bike a FATGLIDE.
Very cool! 😎👍🏽
That one guy, i have been waiting to see this and i feel your pain when it comes to not riding. As my winter in CT is finishing up. Your bike looks amazing. Awesome job, it was worth the wait. Enjoy
We are definitely lucky with the weather here in Cali. Thank you for hanging in there for the video!
Great to see someone wrenching on, and enjoying their bike! I personally like the duck tail fender I have one on my softail custom, but this looks good too! Have fun!
Yeah, I was telling another person that the stock fender started to grow on me, but I've had this vision of the chopped fender in my mind since I bought the bike, and am happy with the result. Thanks for watching and take care!
Just bought my '09 fat bob 2 days ago, can't wait to make it my own
Awesome! Best of luck to you and ride safe!
Thanks for the video. I just swapped the fender on my 2017 Fat Bob. Your video and a lot of additional research made the project very smooth. Start to finish on a Saturday morning. Just ordered the 2010/11 FXDWG stock sissy bar to complete the look.
Awesome, and you're welcome! You got the last year of the Dyna Fat Bobs. Hope you're enjoying the heck out of it! ✌🏽
also swapped with a wide glide fender from what year?
I think it had to be 2010 or newer
If you find my post on HDForums I detailed everything with part numbers etc.
For some reason, that shorter fender makes that rim POP. Thank you, buddy!
You're welcome. Yeah, that fender mod was a must for me on the old Dyna Fat Bob. I know there are those that like the duck tail, but I was not one of them. LOL
Looks amazing, no wonder i get people/offers to buy or trade for this bike from me.. there is so many cool things you can convert it to! But i wanted to say great work i am very impressed
Thank you! I was really happy with the way it came out. ✌🏽
Looks really great!
Thanks!
So much a better loo than the stock set up. That's a mod I would like to make to by Fat Bob. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, and good luck if you decide to do it!
Well done. Looks great!!
Thank you. Thank you!! :)
Looks great! I never cared for the duck bill rear fender. I had a super glide custom and relocated the rear turn signals they were a pain in the butt!
Yeah, wiring has to be my least favorite thing about doing mods. However, it also feels like a huge victory when everything works! :)
Nice job. Even though it's a stock fender it gives the bike a much a cleaner line while still looking custom
Thanks, and I think so. Appreciate you watching. ✌🏽
Personal preference but I like the look of the stock fat Bob fender
To each their own. Thanks for checking in! 🤓👍
Very lovely 👍
God job dude.
Thanks!
Congrats on seeing this mod thru to the end. Bike looks so much better (in my opinion) with the wide glide fender. That's cool you swapped to the Low Rider S seat. Looks good on there. How is the comfort level, compared to the stock one? Please let us know how you fix the warning light issue. Thanks for filming this mod & sharing with us. Enjoy !!
I just did this with my bike a few months ago, once you get the shocks off if you lift it higher the wheel will come out of your way more and give you more room.
Nice MIB reference
vast improvement
Thanks! ✌🏽
Super 👍
Great job! Looks way better. I noticed that you only have one part number for the inner support bracket with a quantity of two. Is this correct or is there one for each side? Thanks!
One per side. They're both the same, so it's the same part number for both.
Interested in swapping a fat bob fender to a wideglide..
Great job!
Is that particular fender the only H-D fender that will fit outside of the stock Fat Bob fender?
I'm personally a fan of the regular Dyna full fender but I'm thinking it won't fit on a Fat Bob because the rear tire is too big?
Thank you! I've never checked any of the other fenders, I just knew I liked the look of the Wide Glide, so that's what I went with. I don't know if the H-D site still does it, but I made sure the fitment was good before I did this. Dealers weren't much help, as I seemed to get a different answer from every person I talked to about this.
Question if I wanted to just take off the license plate holder would I have to take off the tail light ?
Are you using a torque wrench to take off bolts! Severely screwed that wrench up
..oh WoW...looks like a sporty now.
I think sporty-er, or ish, but in-person, it's very distictly a Fat Bob with a chopped fender. ✌🏽
Looks so much better than the stock fender. The stock fender is maybe the main thing that's keeping me from buying this bike. I wish they came stock with that bobbed fender, since I don't have a work space or the mechanical skills to do such a modification myself :)
The stock fender is an acquired taste, I think. It started to grow on me, but I was still all-in for this mod. If you end up getting a FXDF and decide to make the change, let me know how it goes, or if you have any questions!
Question if I wanted to take of the license plate holder would I I have to take of the tail light ? Or is it just those sides and shocks ?
I want to put same fender on my lowrider
Hello!!!
Your motorcycle is great.
Where did you buy the installation kit?
How much did it cost.
Thanks.
No kit. Just like any other parts for older bikes, it's difficult to find them the older they get. I have links in the description to all the parts I bought for the install.
Looks like an iron 883 now. 😜 Just kidding. Nice video looks great. 👌
Thanks! You might be on to something, as my first two Harley's were Sporties! 😆
Looks Amazing. Can you share where you purchased everything? Website?
Thank you! The website is Surdyke.com and they are amazing. Highly recommended.
Hey loved the video.. ...i'm about to do this mod.. just waiting for inner strut brackets..I talked to another guy that did this mod and he's not getting a open switch light on his bike... did you ever figure out what's causing that? He is also using the daytime running lights on his.. one more question did you use your factory turn signal in the rear? I heard the little extenders are bigger than the wideglide so you have to replace them too
It was the harness under the seat. It had to be swapped out. The H-D part # on the work order was 70025-11. I used the factory turn signals, but the stand-offs were slightly larger, and never quite fit correctly, but I made them work. Good luck, and let me know how it goes! :D
@@thatoneguymoto ....you used the chopped fender brake light? Sounds like you might need a load resistor ... hannums told me there was no harness for that application and I was better off using the board on the fatbob and just extending the wires...
The fender brake light is the H-D LED Edge light kit listed in the description. If you can get everything to work and not have the indicator come on, that would be ideal. I tried the load resistor, but I couldn't get anything to work. I'll just say, if you know what you need to do, go for it and see if it works. Looking forward to hearing how it goes! :D
Are you using a torque wrench to loosening everything?
He is. It was all a bit painfull to watch actually
Great job on the fender mod and video production. I just picked up a 2013 Fat Bob and want to order the parts from your list. Did you just use your local HD dealer? Can you provide the source for the parts list? There’s another guy on TH-cam that’s selling a complete unpainted bolt on kit for $975 with plug and play light kit. Would you have considered this option if you could do it all over again? His light kit has an integrated light bar that has signal flashers in the same unit. Thanks for your input and great video(s). Subscriber for life. Ride on!
You can definitely use your local H-D dealer, with the part #'s I provided. I used Surdyke Harley (now Gold Star Harley), because they have a discount for all their parts online.
In hindsight, I don't think I would have done much differently. I really wanted to do it all myself, not because I don't trust anyone else, but it was a way to really get to know my motorcycle, and I'm one of those people who enjoy the sense of satisfaction after finishing something like this.
I really appreciate the sub! Ride safe!
I have a 2013 Dyna Street Bob with the duckbill fender and fender struts are chopped I want to put a regular shop fender on and longer fender struts did you wind up getting them? If so can you message a link please
Can you give me a parts list please with this bc I have the same bike and bin wanting to do this I just not sure what work and what dose not
Check the description for the parts list. Good luck with your bike. It's a big job, but I really loved the end result!
Also, Are you still able to use your other seat (two person)?
Yes. Two-up still works. The hole for the seat bolt for the two-up seat is in the right place.
Do you have the width of the actual fender looking at doing a dresser style on a new bike but finding the width seems impossible
I don't have the bike anymore, so unfortunately, I can't tell you. I will say though that upon installation, it did feel like it was going to be too narrow. After bolting it down, though, it was fine.
What do you use on that light/support...I've tried Allen wrenches but none fit
It's been so long and I don't have the bike, but it's likely a Torx bit.
We’re did you order your parts to do this bro I got a wide glide as well
I got all of my parts from www.surdyke.com. They've always got great deals, and will even chat with you online to make sure parts fit. Thanks for watching!
Question . Did you consider a street bob rear fender at all cause ime preaty sure it sits closer to the tire not saying your bike dosnt look good ime just wondering
The Street Bob rear fender wasn't a perfect match and would've required spacers, so I went with the Wide Glide. as the distance from the tire, I don't think it would've made a huge difference.
Where did you buy the flush mount gas cap and fuel gauge? Been looking for one to fit my fat Bob but the one on Harley’s website says it won’t fit
Yeah, I think you'll have to look for someone on eBay or craigslist at this point. I checked Surdyke and it doesn't look like they carry them either. Best of luck to you!
Can I ask where you ordered the wide glide fender & bracket kit?
I bought the fender and brackets separately, but everything came from surdyke.com.
Question 🙋♂️ do you have any wobble at all on your bike? Once I get to 4th gear or 70 miles an hour it’s a wobble. Not a shimmy or weave or vibration.
Owned this bike for a couple years and did not experience any wobble, at any speed. I usually cruise at 75 mph on the highway.
That is a huge improvement on the bike.. i really wasn't feeling the original fender. (Too long & a bulky tail light). Will we get a new intro with the new mods? 👍🏽
Thank you! And, yes, the new intro is coming in future videos!
Get a flush mount trail light and delete your turn signals
cool modification!! where did you buy the part? leave the link
Part links are in the description. Unfortunately, it's getting progressively more difficult to find them, so you may have to use eBay for some. Best of luck to you ✌🏽
Not sure you’ll see this cause the vid is 3 years old but where did you buy the fender from I cannot seem to find it in the states
I bought my fender and most of the parts from surdyke.com. It's probably going to be difficult to find the part now that Dynas have been out of production for 4+ years now. Best of luck to you🤞🏽
Did you use spacers between de the fender and the struts?
Yes.
I know this is a long shot but did u buy all your parts from harley and did u buy the wide glide parts for the same model year as your fatbob?
Been a while, I know. I bought all of my parts from Surdyke HD, online. And yes, the Wide Glide parts were for a 2013 WG.
An did you have to buy a new seat to or did you buy to make solo.
I ended up buying a Low Rider S stock seat on craigslist. I liked the look and it was pretty decent comfort wise. I ended up going for a Saddlemen Step-up (2-up) later, which was really nice.
Did you have to change your seat? I really like my seat and don’t want to go to a single seat
You can change to any seat that will fit the 2013 Wideglide. I swapped with a Saddlemen seat. th-cam.com/video/WhxuixBeC-Q/w-d-xo.html
Do you have to lift the wheel off the ground? To do this ?
Maybe not completely off the ground, but you need to have it on a stand to remove the rear suspension.
👍
Does the original seat fit with the WG fender?
Yes it does. Any two-up seat that fits the original Fat Bob should fit.
Do you know if a 2013 Fat Bob rear fender will fit on a 2017 Wide Glide?
I think if you check on the Harley website and the parts for the 2013 Wide Glide universally fit on a 2017, you should be good. I'd check with your dealer to be sure, though. A lot of times you can chat online on their website, and you don't have to call, or go in.
Thanks, I called my local HD parts department. They said it probably wouldn't fit. But he wasn't sure.
Would this rear fender fit a 2016 fatbob ? Thx
I'm not sure. Have you tried the Parts Dept at your dealer? I know they can be less than helpful sometimes, but worth a shot. Good luck! 🤓👍
Like to see it with a lowrider fendercuz the fronts so big and wide and the back fender seems so small it looks good and odd at the same time lol i think it would look really good with the low rider fender
I think the Lowrider fender would look good, as well, but I prefer the chopped look.
👍👍👍👍👍
Are the chrome pieces from the rear fender for sale
If I can locate them, for sure. 👍🏽
Hi, my name is Pablo, ... I know this video is old, but could you please tell me where did you buy the fender here in CA ? Thanks !!!
I bought my fender (using the HD part # in the video description) from surdyke.com. You may also be able to go to a dealer and see if they can get it in, but surdyke has been my go-to for parts.
@@thatoneguymoto thanks!
What rear tire and rim size is that?
From Harley-Davidson rear rim size is 5.00 x 16". Tire size is 189/70B16.
What was the total price for the fender swap?
It was around $650-700. That's including the FXDLS solo saddle. I was really patient in making sure I found good prices for all of the pieces, too, so if you just wanted to do this without deal searching, it'd probably be closer to $1,000.
Hi, that another year of cover support i can use?
Can use the Fat Bob support?
What part are you specifically talking about? I do have some of the old parts still kicking around, so let me know.
@@thatoneguymoto i need the WG cover support of the WG. i have some doubts,how long have the WG fender cover support? and from which year of WG I have to buy the support?
@@lisandroremondino7882 I couldn't tell you, for sure, what years the support covers would work on. I ordered the support for the 2013 Wide Glide (the H-D part numbers are listed in the description) and they fit perfectly. You'll have to buy new turn signal standoffs if you want those to fit perfectly (I just dealt with mine not fitting exactly right) with the new Wide Glide support covers.
@@thatoneguymoto 19" long support, fits ok?
@@lisandroremondino7882 I don't have the bike any more, so unfortunately, I couldn't tell you. Sorry. 🤓
I wonder? If I could do this on my 2017 Fatbob? I hate that incorporated taillight
I think you probably could. Yeah, that taillights on any of the Dyna Fat Bobs don't really do it for me.
I want to put the fender you removed on my super glide custom your bike was better the way it was mate I think
That's the great thing about customizing a bike! What I think looks good makes me happy, and what you like may be completely different! Ride safe, bud! 🤓
What is that saddle???
The one I ended up with after the swap is a stock Dyna Low Rider S seat.
Where can I buy a Fender like this?
I'm not sure if you can still get it from Surdyke HD, but that's where I got mine. It's 10 years old now, so you may have to try eBay or Craigslist.
I'm also doing the swap I'm just worried about the gap I see on the front of the rear fender
There was a gap of similar size between the stock fender, as well. Had to go back and look at another video of mine, but sure enough, it was there. ✌🏽
@@thatoneguymoto we're did those spacer for support cover go?
@@chrisdolecki5535 From what I can remember, I don't think there were any spacers. If you're talking about the support bracket bar, it goes on the inside of the fender.
@@thatoneguymoto oh ok NVM thanks for your time

You need blacked out 14 inch t bars
Hi guy..i have a fat bob 2015 would i like to out rear fender like your ...can u help me? Wich Is the rest fender and do u have link to buy It ? 🤗
All of the part I used are in the description. I used the stock Wide Glide fender in Gloss Black (H-D Part # 60519-10DH)
@@thatoneguymoto where did u buy It...i can t find
@@Luke-qs1lc I bought mine from surdyke.com. If you go there now, you can search the part number 60519-10DH and you should be able to buy it.
@@thatoneguymoto hi ...there are no pics of this part is it correct? can u try to see please ? tnx man
Nice gob of Fu---ing up this clssic DYNA!
Which seat is that??
Dyna Low Rider S stock saddle.
@@thatoneguymoto Since you used a Low Rider S seat, does that mean your bike should be able to fit any seat that can fit a Low Rider S?
For me the original fenders look so much better. If you wanted a softail should’ve got one. The Fat Bob has its own beauty. But it’s subjective of course
Yup, subjective. Would've loved to have bought a Softail Fat Bob, but it just isn't within the budget. Thanks for chiming in! 🤓👍🏽
Are you old parts for sale?
I need the long fender strut covers
I'm pretty sure I still have those. If you can shoot me an IM on Instagram or Facebook, we can figure something out. There are links in the description.
I'm pretty sure 60519-10DH is a fuel tank, not a fender
It's the right H-D part #. You can still get it online at the place I got mine - surdyke.com
Men In Black
HA!! YES! It's Men in Black 2, but well done! :)
бро как думаеш почему ты не дизайнер? вот именно поэтому. 1 установка такого крыла требует tair 230 где-то.тогда это смотреться будет и потребует форсировки движка.2 типа сток несмотрится а, зато спиной грязь несобираеш.но тебе это видать в охотку...
The fender is not pliable lol. That gap is suppose to be for the stock sissy bar that comes on the wideglides. You shouldn’t stretch that fender.
I'm sure you're right about the gap, though there was no need to "stretch" the fender, per se. It was just a bit of a surprise when there was about a 1/4" on both sides of space. 🤓
good vid but a suggestion loose crappy music as I can't hear what you are saying ...
I cut the music when I've got something important to say. Otherwise, I'm just rambling on. :) Thanks for watching.
Do not use a torque wrench to loosen nuts and bolts like that ever. You will damage it doing so.
Rookie mistake, and you're definitely not the first person to mention it. Loosening with a torque wrench can throw off the calibration in the wrench, rendering it's purpose useless.
@@thatoneguymoto I didn't read the comments I was just trying to help ya bud. Do you still have bob and if so do you like it? How many miles are on it now?
men in black lol
You got it! 😎
world of a difference, the original rear fender is disgusting
Thanks! A lot of riders love that duck tail, but I was not one of them.
Nowhere to put a girl
You can still swap out a passenger seat on the WG fender. I ended up getting a Saddlemen Step-up seat so I could ride with a passenger - th-cam.com/video/WhxuixBeC-Q/w-d-xo.html
