Tell me about a Fatboy......
Dealer has a nice 2004 Fatboy (non EFI) 9,000 miles w/ V&H stage 1 Price seems fair to me at $11,000
What are some pro's con's of the Fatboy? How do they ride/handle? Any known issues to be aware of, and how do they compare to let's say a Dyna Superglide or Wideglide?
There just seems to be a lot of them up for sale, is there a reason behind that?
Any feedback appreciated

And yep, seems like a good deal to me. My brother-in-law just bought a carbed 06 Deluxe with 9K miles for $12,500.

I LOVE my 04 carbed FatBoy!! bought mine almost 3 years ago from a private owner here, locally for $12000. She already had a 95 kit on it with pipes and bars, (which I now have replaced.)
The only problem I've had with her was I spend waaaaay too much $$$ on her. Or maybe not enough?!?!and now that I think about it, that isn't a problem. I'm in denial. And I talk to myself. Especially after Happy Hour.
Woooo hoooo for Happy Hour!!!

KBB says it's worth retail $11,065. 9K miles is pretty low for an 8 model year bike..... anything less than $11,000 is probably a good buy. I have an 07 so it's EFI, 6 speed, 96 & 200 mm rear tire....... I love it. Great for everyday rides to work and great on long trips. I put ~13K miles on mine last year. Can't go wrong with a Fatboy!
I just Bought My 2004 Fat Boy 2 months ago. My Bank said the NADA Value was $8500. I thought it was way more than that as well. I was going off of NADA Online and KBB.
But my bank would loan up to 125% on bikes so I was good to go and got it for 9500.

You know what happens at happy hour. Long story short,
you wind up re enacting scenes from Platoon w/Charlie Sheen.
Actually Fatboy's are pretty cool. I do like the "plain" FL style frt/fender
on em though.
