But what about the ugly headlamp on the Fat Bob? LOL. +1 on renting both, which ever one you choose will be a good choice. Good luck.

Fatboy: excellent looking bike. Good cruiser.
Fatbob: ugly. Handles better than Fatboy.

I think Fatbob is very unique...
While Fatboy is becoming an ordinary Harley out there...

Fat Boy - You'll have to figure out which one is yours in the parking lot when you leave the ride in.

Fat Bob - Not so much.

I’ve just serviced my mates 2012 Fatbob. Solid bike. I hate the fact you have to dismantle the calipers (fluid refill) to change the brake pads tho!

A drunk neighbor argued with me that I had a Fat Boy and said he knows Harleys.

Here is my ride when it was running back then.

Have a 2008 Fat Bob and it's the best bike I have ever owned or ridden and I have rode plenty of 2024 models so far this year
