Dont like the paint although I could have seen it as an option
Generally like the black accents
HATE the rear fender but like the dual tail light,,, I'd been looking some older Aprilia's with a similar design thinking I'd like to package it up inside my Fatbobs fender..

I ought to be able to pick up one of these 2014 light cheap now... if anyone buys the damned thing..

Overall just left me shaking my head wondering why they didn't make some changes to enhance the handling since there are a fair amount of us that like the Fatbob for that reason.. slightly bigger brakes, better rear shocks

Horrible. Why doesn't Harley try and get more feedback from the consumer on design changes like this one.

They should have put the same rear fender the wide glide has on the back of the FB. Plain and simple! I would have looked harder at the FB if they would have done that from the beginning. Even the old rear fender was weird looking way to long.

LMFAO! It's the antithesis of "sporty".

Hahaha, HD lost the Donkey Dick on the Street Bob only to add Dog Nuts to the Fat Bob two years later.
