FLSTF for me.
Same here. I love my 09 Fatty & am not too keen on the Lo or Special as it's called in the UK.
I can't see them getting rid of the Stock Fatty myself as it well out sells all other HD's in Europe.

The way the trends go if you wait a few years there will be a bunch of the blacked out bikeson the market, or the chrome shops will be busy. It all goes in trends. First it was choppers now bobbers, within ten years the choppers will be back. Not sure if I would want to buy a new bike as they are getting carried away with eletronics, some is good but too much with a good chance to see water is not good, they are trying to make them throw aways JMO

The black looks good but I hope thats not all they're going to make
You can get the 2011 models in other colors besides just vivid black and black denim. HD now offers the Fatboy Lo in silver pearl and white denim.

I can't see HD getting rid of the fatboy....It would be the same as getting rid of the V-twin motor.

Maybe a new variation coming......how about a Fat Boy Muscle with a 120R.

I almost bought a fatboy lo. I think its a good looking bike. I know a lot of people are starting to bag on blacked out bikes, but I think they look good.

I don't believe it either. Only time and the Mo Co will tell.
