Default Fatboy and fatboy lo
Is the only difference between the fatboy and fatboy lo the shocks and seat?
I have a sportster iron and Im thinking of selling it and getting a fat boy or fb lo. But Im 5'5 so height is an issue.
Just wondering if those were the two main differences .

That's pretty much it mechanically, the lo has some different styling eg less chrome and satin accents. However it is very easy to lower a standard fatboy with a couple of bolts I believe, if you found a deal on a non lo fatboy that is.

The lo is well, lower and a bit darker than a regular Fat Boy. All other things are the same.

Had not heard about this. The Fatboy S model for 2016 is 110 if I am not mistaken.
