Looking at a 2007 Fatboy. Is there much of a difference between a 07 & 09 ?

I can think of one straight up, the 09 won't have the offset front wheel!

If you can find an 07 with decent or low miles and that's been taken good care of and for a
reasonable price then I'd go that route. If you can't find an 07 that you like then I wouldn't
hesitate to go for an 09.

I'd go for the new one.

2009 MSRP - $15999.
2007 Kelley Blue Book - $15720.

with the 2009 most likely you'll pay $500 - $1000 for stealer make ready. like has been said already - no off set front wheel. plus, unless you knew the previous owner - you just don't know how it's be treated.

UNLESS, you get the '07 for around $12000 or so.

I don't want to sound like a dumb a$$ but why is there an offset on front wheel?
