I have to admit I haven't even looked yet but isn't a fat boy slim a softail standard?

 

not really. a softail standard didn't have the fat front end that the fatboy (and the slim) has.....

 

I work at a dealer... I like it

Mt85 rear... Mt 90 front...
Not a big difference really...

I think the bike is cool....

 

I put a 200 on my Dyna and a 130 on the front (accessory wheels from HD for the Fat Bob) and the handling improved quite a lot IMO, first thing I noticed (other than better brakes) was it seemed to want to go faster in the turns. I think a 200 is a good compromise between looks and handling.

 

I am one that don't like the fat tires...

 

200 isn't fat........kinda like a few extra pounds.

 

i went to the dealers today , sat on it and it feels pretty nice, i love the look , but my fatbob is more comfortable , ill test it Friday when there demo is ready... i hope i don't like it to be honest , it will save me 5 grand....lol ,

 

Dealer had a Slim parked next to a Fat Boy Lo. The rear of the Fat Boy Lo looked better in my opinion. The rear tire on the Slim looks out of proportion to the gas tank. Just my opinion but the Fat Boy Lo looked like a better choice.

 

Saw one today.... And as far as new Harley's go, this was another one.

 

Sat on one today at the Chicago Motorcycle Show.

I really liked it, but the seat needs help IMO. I could see it getting firm around the 2nd hour. Felt really light, probably from the low COG. Wonder how far I can crank it over before I'm scraping metal?

Cool lookin', but I favor the Switchback for my needs.
