    Are fat bob forks any different to other dynas of similar vintage?  2010 model.
    I was enquiring about an Ohlins for cartridge & they tell me they dont do one for my FXDF but they do Low rider, street bob, low rider from 2006-17

    Hey Brad, the fatbob has different part numbers for the fork tubes and damper rods so I assume they are different lengths than the others you listed.

    G'day Hilly,

    Plus they are the twin disc Dyna, another subtle difference.

    I replaced my fatbob fork tubes with tubes for a wide glide which are 65 mm longer.
    The fatbob fork tubes are likely shorter than the others too.
    There are aftermarket fork tube manufacturers/sellers in the US who list the dimensions for different fork tubes.
