Default 2018 Battle of the Kings - "Fat Max"

Just throwing this out there for '18 Fat Bob fans, or customizers. The 2018 Battle of the Kings is underway, and there are some really nice bikes out there... but the Fat Max wins it for me. It's just awesome.

Dang that’s the look I was headed for. I don’t have deep enough pockets to work fast enough. Lol
Except for the windshield. That’s not my thing.

I don’t know, this is pretty cool too. Mainly cause I’m an old Navy Chief I suppose.

Totally agree on the Navy bike, that's a stunner.

I actually cast my ballot for three: the Fat Max, the Navy bike, and the Farm Machine. The farm machine is just spectacular, I mean, it's a 2018 Street Bob, but it looks exactly like the tractor.



Plus you gotta love that it spews raw flames out the pipes.

Nice. Love the extra fuel can on the left hand side of the Fat Max. I want one of those!

Finalists have been named. All three that I voted for are in the finals. Don't know when the winners will be announced, but I guess there's still time to vote on the finalists.
