Pros Cons Harley-Davidson Fat Bob

Pros

  • Traditional styling looks great
  • Torquey motor is aggressive
  • Throaty exhaust sounds great

Cons

  • Suspension can feel stiff at times
  • A bit too heavy
  • Instrument console needs more information

Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Fat Bob is the quintessential hot-rod cruiser and it is currently on sale in India. It is a style-statement by itself and can be ridden hard too, if required. The Fat Bob offers ridiculous amounts of torque and shove and can be a decent motorcycle to ride in the city as well but on long, open highways is where it shines the brightest.
