Harley-davidson Fat Bob 114 Review

Used Buyer Review

The Fat Bob 114 is one of Harley's more honest attempts at a proper streetfighter — that wide 160mm front tire and blacked-out attitude actually back up the looks with decent handling for an H-D. The Milwaukee-Eight 114 pulls hard from low down and sounds genuinely menacing through the standard exhaust, though it'll rattle your fillings on cold starts until it warms up. Vibration through the bars and pegs is part of the character, not a fault — but know that going in. Used examples from 2018-2020 can have teething issues with the primary chain tensioner and some oil seeping from the pushrod tubes — check both carefully before buying. The 2021 refresh tightened things up considerably. Suspension is firm to the point of punishing on broken urban roads, and the seat becomes an instrument of torture past 90 minutes. Budget for a better seat and a quality service immediately after purchase.
