RoadKing to a CVO Fat Bob
Hi all;
Sold an '09 Police Road King, now I would like to purchase a '10 Fat Bob CVO. Looking mostly day trips, but, a few long ones this summer. Will the bike be comfortable for the long haul. I am not thinking the ride would be as nice as the King, but, hoping somewhere close. Please give me your thoughts, all you Dyna riders. Thanks Donnie |

Thanks Donnie FLD Foot boards: $350~ Nice rear shocks: $650-1000 depending, I like Ricor @ $650 Nice bags: $600~ Leather Pro's detachable Front suspension work: $2-300~ (Race tech, Ricor, etc) If you want a fairing, that's another 500 or so from Memphis shades. If you do high miles, you'll want to look into doing some longevity upgrades to the motor, figure at least a grand there. Matt |
I went from the Road King in my signature (gotta change that one day...) to a Wideglide. I only weigh around 160 and I think the WG rides as well or better. If you are a bigger guy, you may have an issue...I rode it 300 miles last Saturday and was fine...

I'd say the Fat Bob is a pretty comfortable bike but like everyone else I tweaked mine till it was setup just right for me. I agree with mattVA go get a standard FXDF and put the difference in cost into setting it up the way you want. Like having a comfy chair with a hot rod motor and the ability to corner very nicely :icon_eddie:
