Default Fat Boy in suburban Chicago

New owner of a 2008 Fat Boy here!

I have been riding the same 1982 Honda Magna for some 18 years now. The truth is, it has been a great machine, it's just a little too small. It was supposed to be a starter bike. One day my wife told me I could never sell it because we had our first date on it. That's fine, but it doesn't mean I can't buy another bike!

I have spent the last couple of years trying really hard to upgrade to a Softail. I almost bought a brand new Deluxe a couple of weeks ago, but the dealership really pissed me off.

Then I stumbled across this beauty with less than 600 original miles on the clock. And it still has 2 years left on the previous owners extended service plan! SCORE!!!

So that's my story. I am proud new owner of a 2008 Fat Boy. The wife can ride the Honda : )

Congrats! I'm a new member from Brazil and I bought a Denim Black '12 Fatboy Lo with 1000 Kms on the clock about two monts ago. I'd love the bike, my first HD in 40 years riding bikes! Welcome!
