Added a new 114 Fatboy to the Stable at the weekend. Waited quite a while for delivery, Had the stage one done with Vance and Hines big radius.
When these new models appeared last year I wasn't a big fan ! like most things though they grow on you over time. The ride is completely different from the "old " model. more ground clearance ,the shock is adjustable. so far so good. It sits alongside my Heritage 2011 model. This had a few extras fitted to ,along with the stage one .

Surely you mean ground clearance!

Looks nice.

Tis a lovely bike, but big radius nearly made me deaf after a 12 hour ride, and them wheels well I suppose they might grow on me, but :rolleyes:

My Street Bob (with Big Radius pipes) is the only bike I choose to ride without earplugs.

Loud, but lovely.

And that FB looks great.:thumb2
 
Not a bad way to spend £20k.

SB is also keyless stolzy but you do have 2 fobs, go ride a big radius for 12 hours and then tell me its fine.
 
I want it.

Its fine.

In truth, I've never done 12 hrs on it, 12hr-ability was not high on my list of priorities when I chose a SB. I've toured on it a fair bit - the noise (including plenty of snap crackle and pop) is one of its best qualities.

12 hrs was not on mine until I had to get from Faro the Gijon to catch a ferry, was deaf when I got on that ferry, even the beer did not help...........:D
 
Nice FB DC.

I would have chosen mine in black if it hadn’t have been an ex demo. :thumb2
 
Mine has SE street cannons on it and they are fine with a nice low rumble and not too loud. I’ve had a Big Radius on other bikes and although louder because they point downward do not resonate as much as you think.

Street cannons are cool, and with the SE logo command a nice price, but are a nice upgrade.
