The things that are hard to find for the Fat Boy frames are the internal cable stays , eBay doesn't even carry them

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
I am Looking for a Stock Seat......This one is Screwed...LOL. I Dont even Know what the Hell Make or Year this FatBoy is.....It Feels Pretty Light and I was told it was an aluminum frame but I am not for sure The Serial Number is: ACYOA02902 If Someone Could Help Me Out I would Appreciate it. How Do I tell if It's Aluminum?? I have been out of the Game Since the Mid 90's....LMAO

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
Yeah the 3 hardest things to find would be the internal brake guides, seat, and pads. Was even offered $75 for my pristine condition 97 seat. I'm looking for some nice Spanky Tires if anyone has some.

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
Where your brake cable goes into your frame and pops back out it has those pieces of plastic. They always fall out. Dusty did you pick that up off CL?

Yes I did get it off CL. The Guy Delivered it to Topeka from the KC Area for $115. It is Actually in Really Great Shape also Came with New Tires and Tubes. I found a NOS Specialized Fatboy Seat so that Is not a Problem anymore. My LBS has 6 Left now since I got mine so let me know if anyone wants one. I can pick them up and ship for $45 USPS......Here is Seat I am refering too and Personally Like it better than the Current one I have posted above........

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
I thought I recognized that bike. Sweet score that's a long drive. Those seats are slick too. Can't believe they just have those sitting around!

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
These are two of the rarest ones they produced. The one on the left is #74 in production and the one on the right is the Team Model. Member Emo e28 has a rare 1997 Fatboy Pro.

Re: How about a Specialized thread!!!
Heres another Mountain bike company that made a bike real similar to a Fatboy so I had to buy it. I'm in the process of building it up.
