Pros Cons of 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.

Verdict

As A big, bulky adventure bike may not appeal to everyone. But then, it may be just the bike with all-round versatility that many riders seek, even those who have had considerable experience with sportier machines. The GS has a reputation as being one of the most versatile motorcycles which can be used for both two-up touring with luggage as well as for adventures. And it's not difficult to understand why it has been so popular and has been one of the bestselling adventure bikes worldwide.
