Is it true that the Fat Bob doesn't havea catalytic convertor in the exhaust pipe like other Dyna's? I thought I'd heard that HD may have got an exception for 08 Fat Bob's?

Thanks

 

The California models might...I know mine doesnt have one. I don't think the other 49 state dynas do either.

 

HDI-bikes got them, In any case mine has one (germany)

 

Storm, it looks like in your picture you've got mid controls with forward pegs, is that correct? If so how do you like that arrangement? I've been debating between mid and forward controls. Also, what seat is that and did it change the distance to the foot controls? It look like it might move you further back on the bike.

Thanks

 

I am inseam challenged. I HAD to get mid controls because it was just too much of a stretch for forwards. I love the hiway pegs. I even had to modify the upper mounting point as they basically put me in that too stretched out position. So I added a hole that rotated them bad to me an inch or so. The seat is a Lepara Silhouette. I love it. It puts be back an inch or so and also lowers me well over an inch. Word of warning....if you plan on long rides....put the stock seat back on it.

 

To the top.

 

the 2008 fxdf has no converter for all 50 states

 

Exactly what hmmr says. I have one andand I livein Cali. Been to a dealer that showed me the inside of the stock header pipe they removed and there ain't nothin but pipe nor are there any in the stock mufflers. Its the only 08 model not to have them.

 

Then why does the owners manual say: On page 28. All FXDF models are equipped with catalytic converters.
=========

 

Not trying to start a war here but I'll write what is on page 28 of my 2008 Dyna Models owners manual.... "All FXDF models are equipped with catalytic converters. For all other Dyna models, only international, Japan, and Californiamarkets include catalytic converters." So take that information for what it's worth. I assume the motor company would put out fairly accurate information in its owner manuals but you never know.
