Fat Bob Problem?
I just bought the 2009 fat bob(2000 miles) I looked at Monday, rode it home and put in garage(have to wait til Monday to get tags) Problem is when I got home seems like the motor is missing, Ran fine when i test rode it on Monday. The bike hadn't been ridden since last April. I'm hoping that it is just bad gas, but if not, anyone have any suggestions as what to look for.This is my first Harley and I'm not sure what to expect.

2009 w/2K miles = not ridden much so probably "stale" gas so either drain it, or add Seafoam and run it through. Should work out the kinks...good luck!
Also, make sure your battery's fully charged as well...

You could also check the plugs to make sure theres no sooting, should be a lighy brownie/ grey' ish colour. Probably needs good gas and a long run if its been standing that long, I'd get or give it sevice too.
