Default tire size on 06 Fatboy

Was the 2006 Fatboy a 200 tire?

I have an old Barnett's magazine from December, 2006 sitting next to the computer, interestingly enough, and it reads as follows:

"One of the most pleasant surprises at this year's Harley Davidson Show was the upgraded FatBoy...the fat 200mm tire from the Screamin' Eagle version has been added, with solid wheels that have .50 caliber holes drilled in them."

Though no model year is given, I assume they were displaying the new, then 2007 models in September of 2006. Therefore, I think that 2007 was the first model year for the tire as standard, though there were those "wide tire kits".

yep, 07 was the first year of the 200mm rear tire. And yes, the 06 rear fender is much nicer, LOL!

I had found a fat boy rear fender that had the tail end all messed up. They only wanted like 70 bucks for it. Was gonna get it and chop it if it would have fit the Crossbones
