Just got a 2019 Fat Bob - love the bike - have been looking at one for a year now in the local dealership window
I just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing an idle "hunt" with their bob? Mine hunts 770 to 930 RPM in neutral and warmed up.
Just wondering if I should bring it to the dealer and ask him to do something about it?
My other metric bikes never had this, but they were completely different beasts (4 cyl, smaller displacement, etc.)
What license plate bracket puts the plate over the rear tire?
I'm sure he will chime in very soon but the Blackmill plate relocation bracket is what most are running. Pretty pricy but they look a lot better than the stock plate mount. If you want a plate light you'll have to either modify your stock plate light to work with the plate relocation bracket or buy a separate frame from another company to have the plate light.

Thanks in advance.
Cheers.
Mine has been doing the same thing. Not sure if its normal or not. This mornings ride, my Bob was idling consistently at about 900 RPMs. So perhaps its just breaking in? We'll see.
