Are you talking.... FUBAR, DILLIGAF, LAGNAF...

For thing's like this you can go to www.urbandictionary.com I am not sure if they would have the HD models there though.

FXDBI = Dyna Street Bob Injected

FXSTS = Soft Tail Springer (add "I" at end for injected option)
FXSTD = Soft Tail Deuce (add "I" at end for injected option)
FXSTB = Soft Tail Black or Night Train
FLST = Big Front tire Soft Tail or Heritage Soft Tail
FLSTN = Big tire Soft Tail Nostalgia or Softtail Deluxe
FLSTC = Heritage Softail Classic (Quite possibly my next bike)
FLSTSC = Softail Springer Classic
FLSTF= Fatboy
FLSTFSE = Fatboy Screaming Eagle

FLH models are touring models FL = Big front end and H = Highway
FLHX = Street Glide
FLHR = Road King

The Harley-Davidson acronyms are specific to each different bike they produce. The really only way to figure them all out is to go to Harley-Davidson.com and look at each different model and figure out each one. I, like many of us, know alot of them but not all (I'm sure some on this Forum does) but like myself, I know quite a few (such as fxds=Dyna Superglide, fxdw=Dyna Wideglide etc.).

Now the acronyms for Forums for bikers such as RUB=Rich Urban Bikers, etc., No there's not a list that I know of, but as you come across them just ask the members or Mods and they'll be GLAD to let you know.

Good luck!

By the way, sell the Vette and finally get your dream!
I beleive my owners manual has the info on the Harley codes.

Heres one that took me a while to figure out. SERT = Screaming Eagle Race Tuner.
