I must be the only younger rider who actually likes chrome and isn't a fan of blacked out bikes.
I’m with you - perfectly happy with my Vivid Black FLFBS.

I like chrome bits but not everything chrome. I think if the Fat Boy came with the black wheels above or even gunship metal wheels, and kept the chrome accents they would look much better.

I like this rendition of the Fat Boy just fine but it would look killer with chrome bits instead of totally blacked out. But it does look good to me and it reminds me of the Terminator Fat Boy that's for sure.

I really think if they were gonna black it out from the factory, they really should have given it the blacked mufflers, and blacked out the whole wheel instead of leaving those chrome accents on it.

I think they did a great job of capturing the original styling and the modern fatboy all in one machine. I personally would like to see it in the style of the 2002. I thought that Diamond Ice color (metallic silver) was a real eye catcher but this black look is really good on this bike. Buddy manages the local dealership sent me their official pick of it sitting in front of the truck and at first glance on my phone I thought it was an original fatboy. I had to zoom it in then realized what I was looking at.

It needs a satin chrome exhaust system, for sure.

Default New Fatboy

Think they should have gone with a 117 and more chrome

I like the murdered out look! This is would look killer In a new Terminator film. Think the wheels would of been better if they left the cut outs in the wheel rims silver to give the wheels some contrast.
