    What is everyone's opinion on the 2014 Fatbob? I just purchased the black denim version and so far im loving it. I think the new taillight looks awesome. The only thing I plan to change is removing the red lines on the tank, new shocks and adding some more blacked out features ie. horn cover, bars, brake levers, headlight and belt guard.

    Don't like the guard but after seeing one in the flesh I love all the other new features black triple trees ,black rim around headlight, air cleaner and wheels.
    Happy with my 2012 though

    Im not 100% sold on the strip..... ill see how I feel in a couple of months. If i still dont rate it I will just get the tank resprayed and add some HD badges.

    Didn't like the stripe or guard at first but they grew on me after looking at all the pics and youtube stuff I could see of them ,  ordered a vivid black one should have it in a couple of weeks

    I was lucky....... I walked into my local dealer and there was a Black Denim one available on the show room floor. I put a deposit down as soon as I saw it.

     Sat on a new one today and I must say that it is very comfortable to sit on,looks a lot better in real life than any picture,still a tuff looking bike. Love it in denim black,not so much in the primer colour! (sand cammo)

     Not feeling it at all. Can take me a couple of years to get used to things though. Rear gaurd and those wheel stickers are just freakin me right out for now.

    Saw one at the recent 2014 launch and does look better than pictures I've seen. But Flat black paint with gloss black parts didn't look right. Vivid black would be the go.

    Only seen photos of this bike so far and sorry to say this not real happy with the change's Harley have made but if I see one in the flesh that could be a different story, anyway if we all liked the same bike and rode the same bike it would become boring lucky for us Harley's are made to be personalised by there owners cheers.
