Fat Boy length
I'm picking up my new Fat Boy Lo tomorrow with a trailer. I see the stated length is 94.3" for the bike. Does anyone know if that is measured fender to fender or wheel to wheel. I only have 97" to the end of my trailer if I don't put the back on it.
Thanks
Thanks

94.3" from the front tire to the rear fender lip. at least my '08 Fatty is...... hope this helps
just curious, why don't you ride it home? or, if the weather is bad, won't the dealer deliver it?

Thanks guys! I'd like to ride it home, but the dealership is 30 miles away and I want to break it in right. I guess I'd rather do it under more controlled circumstances. This is a life long dream and I don't want to screw it up.

if there is two lane blacktop between you and the dealer, you should ride it. that way you can keep the speed down around 55 or so and dont touch 6th gear going that slow or youll be lugging it. trust me, there will be no better feeling than riding it out of that parking lot. enjoy!

Thanks guys, I had to trailer it due to working out of town and buying out of town, just no other way to do it. However, I did take tomorrow off work just to ride. I'm anxious to get the break in out of the way. It's supposed to be dry and sunny for the next three days.
