Hello all, just looked in here after finding a link from the CandlePowerForums. My search focus right now is the Fatboy S, and it looks like more than a couple people here have either just gotten one or just ordered one. Here are my questions:
1. Did anyone order any add on accessory holsters or pouches, and if so, which ones and for what purpose?
2. Can this be worn as a waist pack, or only over the shoulder?
3. Anyone use this while riding a motorcycle, and if so, how did it fit and function?

You could try to wear it at the waste but it would not work well at all.
I ordered an m2, m1, and cocoon all good. Make sure you order the clips from maxpedition to attach the m1 and m2 to the fat boy. I have yet to figure out how to attach the cocoon but with a carabineer you can clip it to anything.
As for the motercycle I dont know but it does conform to the body well.

I've got a regular fat boy and I'd say you could not use it as a waist pack. The strap just won't do it. For a waist pack you could try the devil dog or the thermite. I have a tube sheath attached to mine and I tired out an M2 on it but I never used it so I took it off. I'd like to get a rolly polly to hold a water bottle. The tube sheath is attached over the shoulder strap above the cell phone pouch and I tried the M2 on the other side of the strap at the lower attachment it was fine but i never used it so i took it off.

Pick from Max's website:

When you say "tube sheath" do you meen the cocoon? If so HOW do you attach the cocoon to the sholder strap if any thing?

4" tube sheath

The sheath is mounted on the fatboy like it's shown in the image from the previous post.

I was just looking at the cocoon pouch can't you use the malice clips to attach it to the webbing points?
