    Love that ! . I really like my 2006 Fat Boy . Rode up to my dealers open day today and nothing tempted me to part with it . Simple bike for a simple Guy !!

    Good stuff Canadian saint, thanks for the video. If the dictionary would have a picture of a motorcycle, it would be an Evo Fatboy as the best example, to me it is the epitome of what a motorcycle should look like. The newer fat boys are cool in their own right and I may even get one one day, however the Simplicity and timelessness of the older ones have my heart. Happy Saint Pat's y'all!

      Thanks. I agree that the evo Fatboy is pretty much the most iconic Harley out there.

    Love, love, LOVE my 2019 Fatty! The designers of this bike did everything right (in my humble opinion) from the headlight to the solid wheels. Also love the chopped fenders; would even go so far to say that the rear fender could be chopped a bit more like the Breakout. I was never a Harley guy before this bike (litre sport bike) and it's because of the styling of the M8 Fat Boy that switched me to HD.

      That’s good to hear. A lot of people will put the new style down so it’s nice to hear from the other side.

      Sounds like you have a pretty nice ride. Hopefully the weather is better there than here.

    To me, the Fat Boy is my favorite Harley!! Hands down!! The best looking, bold, stands out and says " Here I am!! " lol. I have seen some new Fat Boy done up really good. But I am an old school kind of person, and I love the old design much more. Just my opinion. Have a great one and great video 💯🤘🏻

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks. The Fatboy is Harley’s most iconic bike in my opinion.

    I am personally a big fan of more rear fender. I had a ‘16 Fat Boy Special and liked the longer rear fender.

      You are definitely not alone 👍

    Fantabulous FLFBS! They are awesome bikes, the perfect balance.

    New fatboy looks sharp but I prefer the look of the older ones with the lower fenders and old school round headlight

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You are definitely not alone. 👍

    Bike is absolutely gorgeous. Hope to have one some day. Id be keen to know if you have the same front tyre issues with this bike like you did with your last fatboy. Happy St. Patrick's day from Ireland

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s definitely a beauty of a bike. I’ll be making it known if the same uneven wear starts happening.

    Battery was way easier to access on the older models.

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Got that right. The new models are a bit of a pain.

    nice wright up i still like my old fatboy lol i hope you get your mufflers on

    I'd add the wheels to that list, the original solid disc wheels are iconic to the model but the slotted wheels from 2022 are just wrong on this bike, just my observations, thanks.

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No problem. I didn’t go with the wheels as they changed from solid to bullet hole to solid to slotted. I’m sure I’ll get into it when I do a detailed review.

    I like the old style of the nineties.

      There are many like you who prefer that evolution Fatboy 👍

      Thanks. When I finally get the bike out I’ll be going through the whole model in greater detail.

    2014 vivid black chromed out stage two fatty owner. Any Harleys a great Harley keep it washed keep it clean and use it as a basis to build from. if you need the skull and crossbones look you go that way if you want a different look you go that way. Love the way my fatty puts power to the ground. PS I have an oil cooler too.

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Those stage two twin cams sound really nice. And an oil cooler is definitely a smart way to go 👍

    Does the fact that those split rotors still clunk when you brake bother you? I hate that on my 2021, HD doesn`t seem to correct the problem despite numerous complaints. Other than that issue I love the bike.

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The little clunk doesn’t really bother me. As long as they work I’m fine with it.

    I just cannot get myself to like the new style Fatboy. It just does not remind me of a fat boy the front end the biggest problem to me is the headlight I just hate the look of that new headlight the necelle is just got awful to me. The rest of the bike ain’t too bad.

    • @canadiansa1nt309

      There definitely are a lot of folks who feel the same as you.

    ther nice at least they didnt butcher the fat boy like they did to THAT THING they call a sportster they changed the whole machine they should have changed the name HAPPY TRAILS

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They pretty much murdered the classic Sportster.

    • @canadiansa1nt309
      @canadiansa1nt309  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      There’s quite a few of you that don’t care for the new styling.
