I've got a 18 model with a stage2 set up from geelong harley davidson, million dollar bogans mechanic if you follow him. I'm from a sports bike background and the fat bob suits my riding style, instant acceleration when needed, and corners well, I changed the tyres on it and had to put a screen on it to stop buffeting from bdouble trucks and triples which we have in Australia...... The dislikes from me is the indicators and the speedo frosting up, I always carry 5 litres of fuel , with the smaller tank fuel stress in Australia can be an issue after 7pm if you live rural....... I'm 58 and 110ks and this bike suits my ageing relating issues , interpretation of speed and reflexes which i thought had diminished on a sports bike. This is my last bike....a great review that you done. Happy new year!!!!!

Thanks mate. Glad you liked the review. The fogging up is such a stupid problem to have yet it’s on most of the fatbobs. Enjoy your fatbob and happy new year 👍

How do you find the handlebar position? I would need to put some risers on I feel if I kept mine long term, relieve some of the stretching feeling I get.

Sometimes you've got to take what you can get, tbh there isn't much difference between the grey and black models I don't think. Enjoy your ride Smitty.

Great video 👍 I do like the look of them and prefer the Red one. What puts me off HD is my uncle has one and his oil tank lid is a stupid plastic bayonet o-rimg fitting, which is hard to do with the seat on. Maybe they have changed it but for the money it is a bit poor not sure what's wrong with a screw lid 😂 who knows but for me a lot of money could get some really good stuff second hand 👍

@DSR1YT Жыл бұрын

Thanks Richard, I can’t speak for the new oil tank I’m afraid but hopefully they’ve updated the issue. The red sure is a nice colour. I got my Fatbob 2nd with less than 2k miles on it. It was a great bike to own even if it was only for 6 months 😁

Thanks mate, it is I'll give you that, worst part is I scratched the lens a few weeks earlier on the Breakout, then this time completely removed one of the lenses. That will teach me for getting such a lean angle on a Harley, or at least that's what I tell people :). Luckily it's only a £500 camera, oh wait, balls. :)
