2020 Harley-Davidson FatBob - A Great Alternative To A Sportstbike 

This bike is everything I loved about my Sportster dialed to 11! Nimble handling, feels angry, looks great, naked enough that it's lighter, shirt ride height, and it absolutely begs you to be a hooligan on it!

Ex sport bike rider here. Bought a 2019 FB 114 went with stage 1 w/ VH pipes.. Best of both worlds! Very happy with my purchase!

sitting at home, with my Fat bob stowed away in the garage for the winter and drooling at videos with motorcycles :(

This is my favorite Harley

I kept wondering when you were going to realize the key fob is on the handlebars. Glad you made it back without losing them.

Great analysis and riding to show this bike at it's best. I own it and love it. Vance and Hines 2 into 1 Pro Pipe made it sound bad ass. Inverted forks and a tight rake make it nimble. I run it here in the Philippians mountains. Torque monster baby! My wife and I love it....

Great vid!!! Been on many sport bikes and my 18 fat bob is definitely the most sport bike feel for a cruiser.. it is the most fun bike I've owned just to ride on !!!:-)))

I have to wait 2 years until I turn 18 to ride this bike cause I live in Brasil! This is my dream motorcycle!

Mine rocks! It does everything well, slipped on some RineHarts and sounds fantastic. ...... Nice review......Ride hard or stay home😎

Love the starting sound, like some badass heavy truck. Or WWII diesel submarine :)

Great vid,i gonna test ride one of these soon....looks awesome!

"Oooops, There's a Corner Again." Lol love it!!!

Sir all that u said about the fatbob and other harleys is completely true sir, i am an aspiring motorcycle designer and harley is my personal favorite brand and i love people who like harleys , great job sir!!

I am about to buy one! Great review! Subscribed!

Great biike, i love where the keysare on the front break

Picked up an FXFBS after 22 years of sportbikes. He speaks the truth. Great work Infinit

Got mine in stiletto red.. been customizing it for 2 yrs now.. love it .. about to go cross country with it thus summer

I love it. Great video.

Great job with this! I'm getting one real soon. Still debating on the color! Thanks a lot!

If I didn't need a bagger I'd buy one in a second. I've ridden for decades, literally, Harley Davidsons, sports bikes, (ZX14R was my last sport bike) but the Fat Bob seemed to handle better than anything. Oh nice video and review!

I have a 2017 breakout. I test rode one of these last year and told my friend “if I didn’t own a bike already I’d be talking numbers right now.”

i love mine every second of it.

I live in Charlotte and I absolutely love this bike( I don’t ride yet) but I looked at one at the Concord Harley Davidson in that same orange and I have to have it!!!! I subbed

Just bought this exact bike yesterday. 114, performance orange. It absolutely RIPS

Such a clean bike, imo one of the best HD bikes ever made! I got a S1000 R I can't bring myself to get rid of, but if i do it'll probably be this just to have something more practical.

Beautiful colour

Thanks for another great review video 👍🏻

I had the original fatbob(2009)...loved it! I took it on a 982mi one way trip,and it was beautiful! I wish they didn’t change the style,the original looked so much better..IMO

Luv mine.. ! Changed the seat and did a stage one.. Mirrors had to change too for longer stem.. Lots of power..U can tell when cruising with a large group.. They shifting up and down to climb hills.. Not in a Fatbob 114.. Gonna add a windscreen for long trips.. Ride what u like.. and what fits u.. Have fun..That's what it's all about.. And yes I'm dieing by Friday togo riding..

I like the Fat Bob but it does not compare to a sports bike in any way shape or form. Even an MT-07 would show one a clean pair of heels in a straight line, throw some turns in there and it's a complete no contest. Wake up and smell the coffee and just love it for what it is. Funky, quirky and good fun.

I have the wicked red and I do love riding it. Fun bike. H-D haters gonna hate but it really is an enjoyable ride

Pick mine up on Friday ! So amped!

Best color for this bike!

Great bike, love it but still not enough to pull me from my Ducati Xdiavel S That is full of gadgets, Power launch,cornering ABS,TCS, 156Ps, bluetooth, Full colour display, riding modes, Pretty much full adjustability on the suspension, 40 degree lean angle. I love the sound of the Harleys but still very basic machines for the money being asked imo.

I heard that this is the most maneuverable Harley motorcycle. That’s what I like about it. Plus I love the headlight, exhaust and the deep roar and rumble. I am seriously considering buying the Fat Bob. I have a 2010 Honda Stateline right now that I am using for practice and to train. I am thinking of trading it in for the Fat Bob.

I own one, and I love it. Do some upgrade and you will have awesome bike.

Good review.

Love my 2019 114 with VH short shots!. It is indeed nimble AF

Man, i want one!

Nice show

great clip

Want. Just wish they made one with the dash and rider modes of the new Sportster S.

I test rode this at a event. Started popping wheelies the moment I left. Sorry, I've been riding supermoto for too long lol

Is there any upgrades for 2020 model compared to 2018 models?

The video had a very very very slow start but it turned out well thank you

The best!

The great alternative to a Sport is a Naked, the alternative for the price of a Fatbob is a Super Naked. Why spend the money on a Fatbob when you can get a SuperDukeR, Tuono, StreetFighter, or a Z H2. I dont hate the Fatbob, its actually one the better looking harleys but for the price point i find myself easily looking away if i were to spend money around that price point.

I'm looking to get another gsxr, but i think for my wife and I, ridding a fatbob might be more comfortable. For crusing around the lakes, etc, im torn on doing a leap from a gsxr to a fatbob.

You're thinking about an Indian FTR1200 (120hp) or Scout Bobber (100hp). Both can run an 11 second quarter mile at a lower cost. Stock. Let alone once you mod it. The fat bob is very slow especially at 1700+cc. The 1700cc Vmax makes 200 horsepower. This hunk of metal only makes 80hp. It looks cool but there are many other cruisers/naked comfortable bikes that will rip it limb from limb at even less cost. Fun and cool, but don't try fooling people into thinking its 5.8 0-60 is fast.

Im 5"7" 185lbs. I really like the appeal of this Bike. I am a new rider and Im thinking to get the Iron 883 or the Forty-Eight. I finished the MSF training course. But I like Fat Boy 114 so much. Im gonna test drive and test drive this at the dealership. IF I can feel the comfort and confidence I will buy one. Would you recommend this?

Traded my Triumph on one of these. Great alternative to a sport bike. Just wished the front end didn’t dive so hard under braking or well any time.

Orange and black?! 🤤🤤

I have a 2018, 114, the only criticism I have is the gear change, it makes my foot hurt on up changes. It has an edge that digs into my boot. Repetitive changes make my foot hurt. I will be looking into whether Harley has an alternative. Long distances aint a problem, but around town its really uncomfortable.

Man I want one sooooo bad, only I'd need a big sissy bar & saddle bag racks, I took one out for a test ride & was blown away. I need one in my life, only I don't want to have to sell a kidney!

I have the FB114 and also a ZX14R and a CBR1000RR. I gotta disagree with you bro about this bike being like a sport bike. Its a great bike, but its more like a bruiser/hooligan bike. A lot of low end and not much in the high end. But the biggest difference is the RPM range, the FB maxes out at 5K (and also 110MPH) while any liter sport bike is 13000+ with 180MPH+. The riding experience is entirely different. But yes, the FB is sportier than most cruisers, although my VMAX1700 is sportier

I bought a KTM Duke 890R this year, but I could see my self own this as a second bike. 114 vs 107 ?

I want this so bad🤤😍😍

C'mon man - if you're gonna sell this as a sportsbike rival, get it out on dem twisties and show it! (FWIW - you're right; it kinda is and I love mine to bits!)

2:57 That's because you've never ridden a Xdiavel my friend. Talk about cruiser being a sport bike! I am actually trying to choose between the XDiavel and the Fat Bob right now. Ugh, decisions, decisions...

So. For people that wanna ride just as fast as is legal... Ah. Its an alternative to any random nakedbike or tourer that still touchdowns early(honda cb1000f) is what you wanted to say.

Need to go over and show close-up, the features of the Bike...not just the riding of it...otherwise a good video.

Any one sees that key fob about to fly away?

Were you trying to loose the FOB? 🤔

I think the Lowrider S should be in the conversation with the Fat Bob or the FXDR.

You sound exactly like cyclecruza you have the same voice different skin

FUGGIN AD right as he hit the “mini twisties” what a crock of shit lol. Nice review .

I can’t get approved to buy this one. I’m about to buy a Yamaha lol

$19,000 and they still only give you halogen turn signals 🤦‍♂️

how would this do for longer trips?

I'm sorry it's still a Harley. The world's best motorcycle built by the world's worst T-Shirt Company

The title of the video is wrong. It's not a Fat Boy... Thank you for the review...

Forward controls make it very non-sports bike.

Beautiful bike, but the cruiser bike that will out perform this HD and more sportbike like .Starting with the M109r, V-max, V-rod, Ducati Diavel, Triumph rocket III. I. My opinion.. 🙂 But great video.

Pipes

No Brembo Brakes, No Ohlins Suspension, and definitely no HorsePower!!! Their is a reason HD sales are falling faster than a lead 🍎

Are you HIGH ? No way in hell this bike is an alternative to a sport-bike, You want amazing - Ride a Honda CBR-1000RR-SP2, ask 93 what he rides!!

Wow!!! I couldn’t believe how well you handled all of that 83hp !!!! What a joke!! Stupidly overpriced also!!, FXDR is garbage also

Fat bob is just UGLY, is this supposed to be Harley's rendition of a bobber?? if so, i think they should look at the Triumph Bonneville Bobber or the Indian Scout Bobber, but the Harley Fat Bob is nothing but FUGLY. Is this supposed to lure people away from a spot bike? wow, Harley is so lost, like hell if i would pay $25k for a FUGLY bike that is lost in a design goal somewhere between a Bobber and a sport bike. Why not get the Triumph Bobber/Indian Bibber for $12,000 and get a 600 sport bike for $12,000 and have the best of both worlds rather than this ugly garbage for the same price with less power and design taste.
