Thought I would bring this over here from H-D Forums.
Hey just thought I'd start a little thread for those who have purchased, and want to register here, their ownership of Harley's new Freewheeler model. Participation is up to you, I think it would be fun to see who has the lowest VIN number out there and what percentage are Vivid Black, Superior Blue, and Amber Whiskey. (Has anyone seen an Amber Whiskey in the wild yet?) Let's try to stay on topic of 1) Name (or forum name if you wish), 2) City or state you reside in, 3) Color, and 4) VIN number (last six digits only). I'll start below.

screwball can you post a pic of where your engine guard bolted up . and the dealer told me i needed a bracket for the dampener which i got but doesnt look like the top hole in the engine guard goes up to the bolt that holds the dampener. If this made any sense what so ever lol.
Ask and ye will receive. I should take pictures while I'm doing this stuff, but most of the time it starts on impulse. The Linby bars I'm using were originally on my '08 Ultra. I moved them to the '09 Tri-Glide, then to the Freewheeler. The 'arms' bolted directly to the threaded holes already on the frame. They are covered with plastic plugs from the factory. I drilled out the caged bolt on the top bracket, enlarged the hole then cut a notch from the top of the bracket to the enlarged hole. Then I took out the hex screw that holds the steering damper in place, put a large washer on it, then slid the notched hole under the washer. While I was in a fabricating mood I never liked the way the backrest sat. The bar that supports the backrest is the same one used on Ultras and Tri-Glides. Both have a seat that is 2 or 3 inches thicker, so the rest sits up too high. I took the pad off, used a Dremel cutoff tool to cut the adjusting bracket off the arm. Moved it down so the top sits where the bottom used to be and welded it back on. then I cut the top of the bar. Now, the backrest sits where it should.... in my opinion of course.....
Good Luck with your mods, the Linby Mustache bars make great highway pegs and the backrest looks a lot better.

where does the bottom part of the engine guard go
Got a black FW on Nov 1. Traded my 13 TG. Had a 11 TG before that. The FW is perfect IMO. A back to basics hot rod. Has reverse and cruise. That's all I want.
Psycho, that is exactly how I felt, back to basics. Went from a really fun to ride Dyna to an Ultra then a Tri-Glide. Wife and I 'upgraded' to the bigger touring bikes because we thought we needed the storage for our long rides. We had toured all over the south-west on my Dyna and her nightrain. All we needed was carried in T-Bags bungeed to the back of the bikes. When the first 'sneak preview' pictures of the Freewheeler came out I just had to have one. I'm pretty sure I got the first one on these boards. Wife will probably be trading her '11 Tri-Glide for a 'Free' in another year or two. The trunk is plenty big enough for daily breakfast runs, when we head off into the sunset I'll have my T-Bag bungeed to the sissy bar, just like the fun old days.
