With all the COVID bs going on it’ll take a couple weeks for an appointment at the RMV to get my permit. I’ve waited this long, what’s another couple weeks. Super excited to hit the road!!!!

    Bought a brand new Fat Boy in 91 after returning from the Gulf War and saving 90% of my pay for the 9 months I spent there. I never thought I would get rid of it but I happened to see a beautiful 92 FXR that had been completely gone through and fell in love with it immediately. The Fat Boy was a comfortable cruiser but my FXR is a full tilt boogie type of Harley. It's now supercharged, very quick and handles better than any Harley I have ever owned. I just wish it was a bit more comfortable on a long ride. Definitely fun in a canyon carving up a highway though

As it has been since the late 90s, it is a beast of a machine. I love it. It is red/silver. I looked all over the West Coast for one and had to fly to LA to buy it as no one back then had any.

    at 3:40 he stated "1st time bags been drugged, I'll try not to do it again". During my Motorcycle safety course on my Fatboy which i lowered, i knew my Bike floor boards scraped during sharp turns, I let it scrap, the floor boards fold/pivot. knowing your bike is Key to riding through obstacles, in the Safety coarse many rides straighten there bikes when they heard the scrapping noise & failed to hold the course & had to circle back again. knowing your bike stopping power is also Key, for myself i Know the rear tire is going to slide so i'm prepared knowing to keep the front wheel on coarse, " Not Losing Control" OK Every rider, Safe Thump Up.

Im buying used from hd dealer, they will have to ship it up here to where i live so wont actually be able to check it out until after i pay for it?? Hopefully not, but this first real bike ive bought and 1st from a dealer so idk how they handle that. My concern is this, the bike has 39k miles on it? What is high milage for a fatboy? I assume the larger engine would last longer, you arent putting a lot of stress on it as its pretty overkill?

    I love my 2002 Fat Boy. I have a 2005 Custom Sportster too. The Fat Boy is awesome. Have to agree on what you said about the solid rims. Great video

  • @thomasbarnardjr9657

    Sean, I got nothing but respect for you, but it's a fact that the front rim can affect the ride. We've got bridges down here that have cross winds that will push that bike right into the next lane. You love the solid front rims... that's great for you. But I myself, like many others don't. That's for the rider to decide. All that being said, I wouldn't let the front wheel scare me from buying the bike, but it would definitely be changed if I did. I don't need to grow up to know what I like and what I don't when it comes to riding. As a rider, the biggest selling point of a motorcycle for me is the ride. And anything that affects the ride of a bike needs to be considered. And the wheels of a motorcycle are a big part of that. All this said, that's just my opinion and my thoughts on the subject. Like I said, I think you're a great guy, and I love the test rides you do.

    Thanks so much, love your Fat Boy videos! I'm getting a 2012 in 2 days. Never had a Harley, and haven't had a bike for over 30 years. I've been riding other bikes, so I feel I'm ready.
    What camera and microphone set up do you use? Keep the videos comin'!

    What are your thoughts on the newer Evo motor Vs the original one? I've been told to avoid anything newer than a 1999 Harley. I fancy an FXR but they're not easy to find and these newer ones are plentiful.

    Ive tried out some Harley Davidson bikes and the trouble i have is me being 6 foot 4 in. And my knees being so high up on the tank. I have a 2016 Kawasaki vulcan s cafe and i fit on it perfectly. Why is this? The styles i like are to small and don't have enough power
