I have an 18 Fatbob in Bonneville white. The 2 best upgrades and there are many was a set of 1.5 inch risers from CJ motorsports and a new rear brake lever the stock one cramped my calf and tweaked my knee on rides longer than an hour. I replaced the tires at 5500 miles with metzler cruise techs another money well spent item. My pegs began dragging with the added confidence of the tires.
Great Muscle bike, A few years ago I got the Fat Boy instead and regretted it, I have short legs and the forward controls on the Fat Boy were too much of a stretch for me, for that reason all my Harley's have been Mid control since
@@GillyBikes My neighbor has a Fat Boy and it is very heavy, weighing more than 300kg I think. When I ride her I almost disappear. hahahaha. My foot touches the ground entirely, but I don't feel safe. It seems to me that the Fat Bob is more fun and easier. Thank you for your attention.
Great review. Really appreciate the details base on height and comfort for a rider. I’m 5ft 6 and love this bike but I’m more practical and want a bike for comfort and enjoyment instead of trying to look cool on the road. I’m still looking for the Harley that’s right for me. (1st time owner soon)
First thing I’d get rid of are those drag bars and mid controls,replacing them with a set of mid controls and Harley chisel handlebars. The tank is too small- it should have a 5-6 gallon tank. I’d add a quarter fairing. If I could I’d add a clock from a Sportster S.
Now that is a choice only you can make. All down to personal preference. I think this one looks and sounds better than the R18 but I’m sure there are people that would disagree with me. Which did you like the most?
I used to ride a harleydavidson fat bob 2009 souped it up and I can't see myself riding anything else she was getting 215 horsepower and 110 foot pounds of torque on the Dyno with a 103 engine six speed primary and had my mechanic invent a clutch a hydraulic with screaming Eagle racing clutch plates and wrapped 2-1 Vance and hines pro competition pipes
I’ve tried one but it was before I started to review bikes. I remember it being ok but I didn’t love it like I did with the sport glide and the fat bob. I will have to take one out again and check though because I do love the looks of the fatboy.

My favourite Harley Davidson to look at and to ride. Such a great bike
Absolutely. Gorgeous bike.

I didn’t like the fatboy for the same reason. My short legs struggled
I just bought my 2023 Fat Bob this week. I love it.
Amazing bikes. I’ve been on quite a few Harley’s since this video but this one is still my favourite
This video made me love Fat Bob! Great review!
This day riding made me love Fat Bob too 😎
Hi, great video. I'm 1.67. Would it be reliable or comfortable for my height?
I’m 5ft 8 which I think translates to about 172 so not much difference

Definitely. I feel the same on the fatboy. The fat bob and sport glide are so much better for anyone around our height.

You should look no further than the sport glide then. I absolutely love that bike.
Bought from my neck of the woods enjoy the trike (couldn’t resist) 😃
😂😂 that’s nicer than others have called it. A mate of mine called it a mobility scooter. ☺️
Have you tried a Sportster S and if so, how do they compare?
I did try the Sportster s when it first came out. This is much, much better. But that’s why it cost quite a bit more.
I love your little Harley 😍
So do I. 😻
I love my 2020 Fat Bob! If harley stops making them, I might switch to an Indian Chief.
They are my favourite HD to ride so I hope they keep them coming.
What do you guys think of this FB compared to the Dyna FB?
congrats on hitting 4000K gilly
Thanks T 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
The first thing i did was change the exhaust over to a freedom plus upgraded air cleaner
Good choice. They definitely need to have a new exhaust to sound like a Harley should.
Fantastic bike.
My favourite HD. 😍

The joys of Harley Davidson you can make them your own with a few changes. 👍
should i get this one or bmw r18?
Now that is a choice only you can make. All down to personal preference. I think this one looks and sounds better than the R18 but I’m sure there are people that would disagree with me. Which did you like the most?
Yea my old bike hated and I mean hated going slow

That sounds nice 😎
There is more to your story...
Talking with your hands while riding. Thats oc man
👍
I hope that pic taf sent wasn’t of me. 🤬
😂😂 not unless you have grown a penis 😂😂
Can you use a better microphone please? DJI maybe
I have invested in a DJI wireless mic. New video dropping on Saturday. Let me know if that’s any better.
Ha ha .. ya massive weapon
What you talking about ? Is it you weird fantasies about girls with big D?
very quiet for a harley. not so loud like the Hell's Angels bikes
It sounds ok. Euro compliance always screws us though.
Harley's are old hat these days every one has got one
Not everyone. I’m Harley’less at the moment I will get another at some point though.
If you think this bike is good try riding the fatboy
I’ve tried one but it was before I started to review bikes. I remember it being ok but I didn’t love it like I did with the sport glide and the fat bob. I will have to take one out again and check though because I do love the looks of the fatboy.
Yuk can’t go with ball shit, do an in parcel review mate or don’t bother.😢
All my views are my own. If I like it I will tell you. If I don’t I will tell you. Thanks for watching though 🫣
