You made a very good point Freddie - owning a dream bike is not just riding it - it's also the feeling of happiness when you just think about it parked up in the garage. Might sound strange for other people but that's how it is for us. Great upload 😀

I remember when I bought my 1980 Jeep Cherokee Chief (in 1992). All through work, I would think about it parked in the lot. A couple of times a night (I worked overnights at a hospital), I’d go down for a smoke break & I’d just look at it for 5 or 10 minutes, so I know that feeling quite well.

I just rode my 2023 Obese Robert about 350 miles in two days and it was phenomenal. For long trips I throw on a 19” windshield, some Thrashin supply saddle bags, and a waterproof duffel. About to put on some 3” risers to add some comfort. The bike is light and keeps up with Street and Road Glides all day long. After a long trip I strip it back down to its street brawler looks for the daily commute and local rides.

Last July found a bottle of Powers Irish whiskey for my cousin's 89 year old Irish neighbor. I was in the East Bay Area, my cousin was in the suburbs of Vancouver, BC. Ergonomically the only changes was 3 inches of rise in the bars, motobars, Memphis shades fairing with their lowest screen (the others cause my head to bob around too much) and a Mustang seat. Left at 12:30 on the Friday got there 6:30pm (920 miles) the Saturday. It was an AWESOME ride. I am so happy with my Fatbob. I have other bikes but it's the one I always seem to swing a leg over. Can't recommend it highly enough (or I-5 in the Northern end of California with its lovely sweepers). Great fun. I so want to do it again

I’m not a fairweather rider, I commute everyday on my bike, how would this be as a commuter?

Freddie I’m not a biker never been a biker and never rode a bike. But I find you videos very relaxing calming and therapeutic for some reason 🤷🏻‍♂️

With basically no motorcycle riding experience (except for owning a Yamaha Xmax Scooter) I rented this beast last year in California and did 2.600 miles in two weeks. Took me through the hurricane when it lightly hit Yellowstone, to Vegas the Grand Canyon and many more incredibly beautiful places. Had the best time and we grew into one during that trip. The power of the engine was such a visceral experience. Yes, sometimes a windshield would have been nice and if my buddy didn't have panniers on his Harley, it would have been a real problem. After that trip I had to get a real motorcycle but the Fat Bob wasn't ment for my commute trough city traffic. I finally landed on a Moto Guzzi V7 850 Special - of all the bikes I tested, the sound and rumble reminded me of the Fat Bob most. Very happy with my purchase so far. Ride on!

This is one of the best bike reviews i have seen. Only a true enthusiast can do that. Bravo!!

That’s my favourite bike from all of your reviews Freddie. It looks amazing. £20k is the only thing stopping me from buying one.

Unfortunately most viewers focus on specs and pricing will not understand your connection with this bike. Your personality allows you to connect with the a mulitiple brands of bikes. This is your gift most of us don't have. You hear the reindeer bell from the movie "Polar Express", I hope you don’t lose it.

watching the past few videos of you on the bike i wasnt a huge fan of it, but this video tipped me over. i kinda like it. missed these type of videos, where the purpose is just being brutally honest and appreciative of what is either done right, or wrong. i think back to the og classic 350 video, or the meteor videos. Those reviews nail it on the head, and with this video youve brought that same energy back. Hope to see these types of analyses more in future videos :) (shame the bikes stupidly expensive for what you get)

American here, have a '17 Dyna Fat Bob, and to be honest it (and the Softail version) seem to be far more popular in Europe then they have been in the US since it's inception; it's a bike that doesn't seem to have a place in HD's line up, especially with the Low Rider S taking the performance mantle... I'm surprised it has taken them this long to cancel it.... having said that, living 5 miles up a dead end dirt road, coming from a dual sport/adv bike background here in Vermont, I love mine.

You said the Street Bob was £2000 less, but looking on the website now, the Fat Bob 114 is £4000 more than the Steet Bob 114. That's pretty significant. I have a Fat Bob, but bought it before the price hike, and second hand. I definitely couldn't justify it at it's new price point 😄

Very well done Freddie. Spot on my friend and the Cornish setting is perfect for such a piece of American Heavy Metal. That Sport Glide beats all for me! Thanks for such great morning entertainment👍✅

I love your style of doing videos. Subscribed, my dude.

Great video Freddie. I took one out for a test ride and kinda liked it, but I'd just stepped off my Multistrada on the journey to the garage - and losing pretty much all of the luxuries of the multi was too much of a juxtaposition. I've since bought a Sportster Forty Eight and get the same feeling you do about Obese Robert. The engine, the torque, the sound, the way it makes you feel. No other motorcycle brand does it as well as Harley.

I enjoy watching your videos, Freddie. They are very entertaining. You do a fantastic job of viewing a motorcycle. I really get a feel for the bike. I wanted to pass on my experience. I have been riding motorcycles now for 56 years. I would be very cautious of riding between cars. I have seen people open up their doors when they are not feeling well to bring up their cookies. Be safe.

The production value of this video is outstanding. Great job.

The main problem with harley is that they are pricing themselves out of the market of what most riders can/are willing to spend. Theyre becoming a brand like Porsche or jaguar. Which is a shame because Harley's are great iconic motorcycles but they became too expensive. Especially with the sportster line up that got removed. And dont get me started on the new sportsters, theyre hideous and expensive and resemble nothing of a real harley.

It’s the Harley Davidson Fred Dobbs Superlative edition! The comparison and summary at the end of the video was really good.

A Harley that I'd actually like to own, what's happening to me?! Love the looks of that bike. Another great vlogs F&M. Cornwall looks absolutely stunning when the sun comes out to play😎👍

A fantastic video Freddie... It's all about the big smile a Harley will put on your face every time you go out for a ride which most riders will never understand. Yes, I've owned many other bikes from Triumph, Royal Enfield and the Japanese big 3 but they can never put the smile on my face as my Harley's. As a matter of fact, I still have all 4 of my Harley's dated all the way back to the EVO's and recently with the M8 motor and the newest platform the Sportster S and Nightster which are a blast just by themselves. But if you like the traditional potato sound then the M8 is the way to go... my EVO just turned 144K and it still runs like a top.

You should try the Street Bob next. you will love how fun and nimble it is. Also a very good classic looking bike.

I believe the name has a more sinister origin; rumor has it that the Fat Boy name was a portmanteau of the names of the 2 hydrogen bombs dropped on Japan in WW2. And presumably the Fat Bob was originally a stripped down version of the FatBoy

I love the sound as it starts up. The price tag is quite eye watering. As a newbie rider, I think the weight would worry me a bit. But overall, I do quite like the look of it. Good review, many thanks.

Such a wonderful articulate description of a wonderful bike ! 👍

Wanted 1 ever since the Terminator jumped it into the LA river, the 18 wheeler, the explosions, and all, but....

Plain and simple. It's got a face only a mother could love. Would be better suited with mid foot controls over the forward position. While the "bobbed" rear fender may look good it's trash for group riding as many harley riders do. It spits gravel straight back into the rider behind rather than down. Personally not a fan of the fat front tire, just added rotational mass.

Love the quality of your films , would be interested to know what camera settings you use as I am.finding it a bit of a mine field

Ай бұрын

Completely false. The Sport Glide isn't even remotely comparable to the Fat Bob. It's heavier, only one front brake, non-adjustable rear suspension...

You make a good point Freddie about how what I call forced modern looks age badly and can even fail when new in my opinion. Take the humble MG Metro from the early 80's. It sold very well with its traditional badging, honouring the integrity of the MG brand. The simple octagon badge on the grill and sides worked. During the late 80's they decided to 'pop art' the badging, with half octagon MG badges printed seemingly at random across the sides of the car. The integrity of the brand was lost and the MG brand was dropped from the Metro range. Royal Enfield have done the same thing with the Hunter 350, using 'pop art' with their Royal Enfield name on the bike's tank. A bad move in my opinion but at least it is only with the one model but it is 'talking down' to your buyer. Will these companies ever learn...

Had a few Harleys. Dreadful after sales, expensive and the brakes we’ll say no more. I now have a beautiful Yamaha Raider and a Triumph Thunderbird Storm and boy is that a bike. Just fantastic.

Great job, Monica!

I enjoyed your description of the emotional appeal of a bike such as the Fat Bob. I sold my 2021 Heritage Softail (With the 107 inch Milwaukee Eight motor) which I'd owned for a couple of years because I'd simply done what I wanted to with it. Every ride is an occasion on a bike such as that but I figured that I could get the same visceral appeal and sensation from other, less expensive machines. Plus I don't like the fact that H-D seems to be spiralling downwards into becoming a boutique brand with a severely limited appeal.

Good comparisons mate. I haven't ridden the Fat Bob, but I do love my Sport Glide.

I watch for the bikes, and for Freddie's presentation skills. Plus, filming in Kernow made this one a "proper job."

Great review. All the need to knows and nice to knows.

For a great Harley that still looks good, take a look at the mid 90s Street Bob. Now, that’s much more like stripped back bobber. The Dyna range were all great bikes. I have owned 2 of them and I have no idea why HD stopped the range.

I love the look of this bike. I didn’t get a chance to test ride this bike as I was not confident enough to ask. One of my friends has the same and it has great road presence and he loves it.

It wouldn’t be out of place on a farm ! 😫

A great description of the Harley Fat Bob. That engine must be quite high compression, as the starter seems to take quite a bit of strain before the engine comes to life. I would guess the choice of bike obviously comes down to what the end user expects and what they are going to use it for.

I love the jacket. I thought it was Belstaff but couldn’t find anything that looked like it on their site. Would you happen to have a link or other?

It’s how I feel about my Chief bobber- I think about the engine and the sound- when I’m on it, I feel like I’m straddling a B-52, it takes me back in time but yet it’s modern- these bikes are rolling art and feeling- the price, expensive yes. But, it’s not for everyone- they sneak their way into your life and then you can’t picture how it was before- beautiful Harley, by the way the country side your riding in looks fantastic- I ride in the mountains of Southern California

I ridden a few late model Fat Bobs and they are the best handling motorcycle in the HD range. Great lean angle and the 114ci is smooth with tons of torque. Two negatives are the all-terrain tyres are horrible and they should have gone for twin Led headlights like the Rocket which would have been similar to previous models.

Would love to get your review of the Ducati Diavel V4. A bike that covers all bases.

The Goldwing is one of the worst bikes made.

I test rode one of these a week or so ago. My only complaint, which is easily remedied, is the super quiet exhaust. I loved everything about it. Then I got back on my paid off, well modified 2021 Sportster Forty-Eight… Full Stage One, Legend Revo rear shocks, weighing in at about 550 pounds. I really wanted to want the Fat Bob 114 enough to trade my Forty-Eight for it, but I just couldn’t do it… All that said, Harley screwed up badly discontinuing this bike in the US. IMO, it’s an awesome bike!

Hi Freddie, love the video! And I adore the fat Bob! Do you think you could do a video regarding riding with Napoleon? I have convinced my girlfriend to get on the back of my bike, but I just would like to get some pointers on how to so I’m confident, so I don’t scare her the first time

Once I got rid of the original tires and saddle this bike became an awesome motorcycle for everyday use even for long runs. I also added a cruise control and a Sharknado fairing.

Hello from Spain and congrats for your channel! What do you think about the Fat Bob and the BMW R18? Apart from the aesthetic differences, of course.

Yeah, the price. Eye wateringly expensive here in NZ, but as you say, the resale hasn’t kept as high as others. But then like the vrod, nightrod, fatbob actually make more sense to buy second hand. But really, as you also say, the sportglide is just more practical. So if I only had one bike, it would be the sportglide. If I won the lottery, I’d have the fatbob too 8) right alongside my Indian scout 101 in the imaginary garage.

Freddie you need to get your hands on the Heritage Classic 114. Literally the best Harley Davidson made.

I’ll throw in my 2 cents on Harley’s current lineup. The bigger touring bikes attracted the riders who put 50k in 4-5 years in their bikes and then traded in for another. Now, those guys just aren’t doing those miles anymore and are hanging on to the bikes and not buying new. That was their bread and butter sales. Fat bob, Dyna’s and Sportsters just aren’t attracting the younger riders. Likely due to price, competition and changing tastes. Don’t get me wrong, they are all great bikes. I considered another Harley before buying my Speedmaster. Harley just didn’t provide enough value for the money and several dealers just turned me off with their sales tactics.

Personally, I think Harley’s days are numbered. They’re mostly bought by affluent older bikers over 60 who started riding in the 70’s and 80’s. The numbers of these is diminishing and fewer younger people are into biking and if they are they are less affluent. I personally think Harley made a huge mistake in dropping the Street 750 from their line up as a reasonably priced entry into Harley bikes. Harley dealerships are closing due to lack of sales already while the likes of Triumph, BMW, KTM a lot of Chinese manufacturers are making smaller capacity, much much cheaper bikes, the master being Royal Enfield who make good quality machines at fantastic value for money.

In the US, during the COVID related bike shortage, when the dealerships couldn’t get any bikes and the floor was mostly empty, you could still find Fat Bobs. No problem. Every dealer still had a few. 😂

I have ridden a Harley a few times. I am a fan but have always ridden large (fast) Hondas. Harley in the US is NOT known for its quality although I agree that has changed. I now ride a Bonnie 1200. . .I DO wish it sounded a bit more like a Harley, but I do love its sound, it is lighter, more comfortable, and a lot cheaper. . .

I’d take the Rocket III all day over any of the other Harleys you talked about in your video. I test rode a Rocket and didn’t experience any of the complications you complained about with the Rocket III. The brick wall you’re going to hit with a Harley: No top end. No such limitations with the Rocket. With the Rocket you have a choice between cruising or burning up the road in milliseconds. With a Fat Bob you only have one choice. Cruise with a couple seconds worth of top end before you hit a brick wall. Beyond that everything with Harley permeates around branding.
