Pros Cons Harley-Davidson Fat Boy

Pros

  • Butch looking cruiser
  • Good Performance
  • Lots of pose value

Cons

  • Brand no longer in India
  • Difficult after sales
  • High cost of ownership

Verdict

The Fat Boy has a unique design and there is a generous dose of chrome and that is not all. It comes with a load full of features too. It features a wide FLH-style handlebar, a textured leather seat insert, custom metal fenders and a shotgun-style dual exhaust system. The Fat Boy is powered by a Twin Cam 103 1690cc engine that produces a generous amount of power and it's a highway cruiser so don't try and tame it by riding it in the city. It's clearly out of place there.
