Softail range was launched in 1984 with a hidden rear shock absorbers to the “new look Softail hardtail is the name of the chassis, and although it resembles a motorcycle yesterday, the chassis is modern enough. The result is long and low look so many people love the Softail models. Harley Davidson Fat Boy is one of the most copied cruisers there, which speaks for itself Fat Boy motorcycle really. fame after terminator escape vehicle of choice with Guns N ‘Roses blasting in the background shot.
The new 2007 Fat Boy is a fat 200mm rear tire, new rear bumper, new 17-inch ball-hole disc wheels, new internal fat handlebar wiring, new graphics and Twin Cam 96B V-Twin. In Europe we get is an active intake and exhaust system that maintains the characteristics of sound and speed in the fifth and sixth gear first, while the exhaust valve is still on top in another program at a certain rpm-All for the sake of € 3 and closed sound regulations. On the road it feels a bit strange.
There are plenty of second gear corners on the mountain, we climbed and from first to second gear notices that something is missing. There is a simple solution to this problem, though. Just swap the silencer on the ground, and the relief valve “idle”. Coupling is now 10% lighter and it makes it even more user-friendly. The gearbox itself is now a six-speed and improved, but still not smooth as in the Japanese box. The new overdrive sixth tooth is a true overdrive for use on the highway at high speed. When using sixth gear 40-50 mph, I had to gear down to gain momentum. I want the CVO Fat Boy go to really experience what big air-cooled twin may have to be done.
