Harley-davidson Dyna Fat Bob
The Harley-davidson Dyna Fat Bob has a top speed of 185 km/h, produces 68 hp and weighs 305 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
A Harley-Davidson Dyna Fat Bob (FXDF) foi lançada em 2008 como parte da família Dyna, com uma configuração distinta de faróis duplos e um amplo para-lama dianteiro que lhe conferia uma estética crua e agressiva inspirada em bobbers. Ele rapidamente se tornou popular entre os pilotos que buscavam uma aparência mais musculosa e despojada em comparação com outros modelos Dyna e recebeu a atualização do motor Twin-Cooled Milwaukee-Eight quando a Harley fez a transição para a linha Softail absorver a linha Dyna em 2018. O nome Fat Bob foi então transferido para a linha Softail a partir de 2018 com um chassi completamente redesenhado e um estilo atualizado.

O que os compradores devem saber
Watch the Twin Cam
The Twin Cam 96/103 engines in 2008-2017 Fat Bobs are known for cam chain tensioner wear — a common and costly issue if ignored. Always verify this has been inspected or upgraded before buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The Fat Bob holds its value exceptionally well compared to other cruisers, often retaining 70-80% of its value after 3 years. Its aggressive dual-headlight styling keeps demand consistently high in the used market.
Milwaukee-Eight Upgrade
2018+ Fat Bobs switched to the Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine, a significantly more reliable and smoother platform with improved oil cooling and reduced vibration. Buyers should strongly prioritize this generation over earlier models.

Introduziu faróis duplos, motor escurecido, pneu dianteiro largo e estilo de bobina bruta na plataforma Dyna.
"Bruiser de aparência mesquinha que, na verdade, funciona melhor do que o esperado."
O Fat Bob é o chassi Dyna fazendo seu melhor trabalho: a Twin Cam 96 montada em borracha puxa com força a partir de 2.500 rpm e o amplo pneu dianteiro de 180 seções dá à bicicleta inteira uma sensação firme e objetiva que o público da Softail nunca terá. Já percorri 500 milhas no meu e o assento baixo de 686 mm é genuinamente confortável para um ciclista de estatura média, embora os faróis duplos sejam mais estéticos do que a iluminação noturna real — eles são embaraçosamente escuros para os padrões modernos. O motor escurecido e a postura bruta da bobina envelhecem surpreendentemente bem, mas com 302 kg molhados, você sente cada quilo em manobras lentas no estacionamento e a suspensão padrão é ajustada para alguém que não pesa nada e não bate em solavancos. A vibração nas pegadas acima de 100 km/h é real e constante, o que se torna parte do encanto ou lentamente o deixa louco, dependendo de sua personalidade.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"Raw, honest American muscle that rewards careful used-buying diligence."
$7,500-$14,000 usedThe Fat Bob is one of Dyna's most characterful machines — that wide 21-inch front wheel and dual headlights give it a genuinely menacing street presence that ages well. The Twin Cam 96 or 103 engine is bulletproof if it's been maintained, and most Fat Bobs have seen decent miles without drama. Check the cam chain tensioners on pre-2006 bikes though — that's the one known Achilles heel that can turn into an expensive rebuild if ignored. Riding position is aggressive for a Harley, feet forward but not stupidly so, and the thing actually handles reasonably well for something this heavy. Don't expect sporting dynamics, but it won't embarrass you on twisty roads either. Vibration through the pegs is real above 70mph — that's not a fault, that's a Dyna. Budget for new tires almost immediately on anything used, and inspect the rear isolator mounts religiously. They crack silently and the handling goes sideways fast.
