My first Harley was an ‘04 FLSTFI Fat Boy. I absolutely LOVED that bike. I put over 70,000 trouble-free kms on mine, before gifting it to my oldest son, as a housewarming gift. I rode to the Grand Canyon and back on it, via the “scenic route” (7000 km round trip), and 2/3rds of the way across Canada and back (8000 km round trip). Used it as my daily commuter in the summer months, and put thousands of kms on it just ‘day riding’. The only mods were Stage 1, 2 up/2 back risers (because I have a sh*tty back, and the stock risers made it an uncomfortable reach for me on longer rides), Screaming Eagle pipes, and I swapped out a Fat Boy seat for a Heritage Softail seat, and installed a gel pad in the rider’s seat. It was a very versatile machine, great for city riding, day trips and long hauls. I don’t regret giving it to my son, as I know it is in good hands (and I can still borrow it now and then). I’ve had a Street Glide, and now a Road Glide, but I’m itching to put a Fatty back in the stable, to augment my fleet. Hard to get out of the system.

Factory intel for you: The shocks are not under the seat. They are under the transmission. Spoked wheels become effectively solid at 40 something miles per hour because: physics. We had to explain that to customers often. Some still didn't believe it. Solid wheels do seem to have a gyro effect, which is a plus for stability. There is no "tuning" to a factory EFI system. Just aftermarket. Change the plugs, plug wires, clean the connections. I like 5 speeds better too. High gear is 1 to 1, and has little to no wear going on. HD 6 speeds are overdrive, and receive more wear and stress on them. I like your videos, and funny commentary. Keep doing them!

Keith Tomczyk no. I mean they become effectively solid to side winds. If you keep your spoked wheel true and tight, it will be just fine at 85 mph. That's about as fast as I get anymore. Old age, and an old hardtail.

The name Fatboy came from a combination of the names of the bombs that we dropped on Japan. Fat Man and Little Boy. The color of the first Fatboy only came in grey. The same grey that the bombs were painted. Also there were seven ( I think) yellow stripes, to denote ordinance, three on one bomb, four on another. It was a statement to Japan. You won’t find this in the literature today.

I have a 2002 fat boy. I took it on a trade for a 1990 wrangler Islander. I hadn’t been on a bike since 2006 and was being really cautious and taking everything kinda slow till I got used to it. It had 12000 miles on it. It’s the first Harley I’ve ever owned and I have to say I really like it. My last bike was a 2005 Suzuki boulevard m90. My wife and I usually ride together and we both love it.

After watching you ride I really miss my '08 Fatboy. I lived in San Bernardino (sea level) and worked up in the San Bernardino Mountains at over 5000 feet riding everyday to work. Sometimes the wind was outrageous and coming down the mountain at 80 to 85 was my norm on the long stretches. Never ever was I concerned about being blown around the highway by the wind due to my wheels...sorry but that's BS! Anyway, I loved to overland camp or moto camp; I guess that's what they call it now. I rigged my bike with a removable windshield, fog lamps, removed the rear seat and mounted a custom chrome rack, Harley saddle bags, custom rear lights including indicators. A friend made a custom leather bag for my short sissy bar that lit up for night riding and glow when the brakes were applied. My duffle backpack bag secured to the chrome rack became a super comfortable back rest. I bought a Nelson Rigg tank bag that had a map display pocket on top (with a flip up map light) and reflective strips on the sides.

Honest question. I'm about 5'8", thin build yet relatively strong for my size. How will I do on bike over 600 pounds? Is it going to be a pain in the ass not to drop when wiggling out of a parking area? I'm admittedly a fan of maxi-scooters. Not wimpy, just smart. Pound for pound, versatile, useful and adequate power depending on the model. A touring bike can be 800-1000 pounds by contrast.

the statement about who has the most gears is so true. The number of speeds definitely isn't what matters. It's the ratio of each gear that makes the difference. My Suzuki Boulevard C50 (800) which I have had for about 6 years was a decently powered bike with a 5-speed, however cruising on the highway at 70-80 mph in 5th gear definitely felt like I was wrapping out the motor. Now, just the other day, I upgraded to a Honda VTX 1800 (super badass bike BTW), also with a 5-speed, but because the bike has a much bigger motor on it, it can handle lower rpm cruising. That's why when you're going 70-80 mph in 5th gear on that beast it only feels like your motor is running a little bit above idle speed. It's a real shame that Honda quit making them after 09'

Either you are man enough for a FatBoy or not but please quit blaming your sissy reaction on the wheels. I love the Fatboy and will eventually get another as a play bike.
