Harley-Davidson Dyna Fat Bob 2017 — Specifications

Flagship of the Dark Customs, the Fat Bob underwent a transformation in 2014. It was dark, it becomes aggressive. Chrome seems to give it hives; so, it shed it, replaced by black on the engine and the air filter cover, the rear suspensions, the fork tubes, the headlight bezels, the instrument panel and the battery cover. The aluminum wheels with slotted disc are dressed in black powder coating and finished with a laser-engraved Harley-Davidson logo. Its twin headlights have not changed, and that’s a good thing. They give it a hypnotic, bad, borderline-sly appearance, and it suits it well. At the rear, things get rough. A large axe chop truncated the mudguard, into which a double LED rear light has been embedded. The Tommy-Gun exhausts retain a chrome coating on a more "squared" design. As a result, bad boys will certainly want to spend even more time on this dark machine. Their seat won't mind: Harley revised the seat, both sportier and more comfortable.

I love this sentence from the press release: "Double disc brakes at the front and an anti-lock braking system attempt to brake the monster." Admit that it’s frightening to think about stopping when the 320 kilograms of metal are pushed by the big Twin... Let’s not forget that there’s still more than 13 kg⋅m of torque expelled from the 1688 cm3 engine. The steel frame, the Dyna chassis, the 49 mm fork and your hands on the large handlebar take care of the rest. In the streets, the Fat Bob wants to inflict its authority. It’s up to you to impose yours!.
