Harley-Davidson 1690 DYNA FAT BOB FXDF 2016

presentation of the 1690 DYNA FAT BOB FXDF 2016

the spearhead of Dark Customs, the Fat Bob underwent a makeover in 2014. From dark to aggressive. Chrome seems to give him hives, so he's cleared it out, replaced by black on the engine and air filter cover, rear suspension, fork crowns, headlight surrounds, dashboard and battery cover. The aluminum wheels with slotted discs are powder-coated black and finished with a laser-engraved Harley-Davidson logo.
The dual optics are unchanged, and all the better for it. It gives the bike that hypnotic, bad-tempered, borderline devious look it's so well-suited to. At the rear, things take a turn for the worse. The mudguard has been chopped off, and a double LED taillight has been fitted. The Tommy-Gun exhausts retain a chrome cover on a squarer design, so bad boys will certainly want to spend even more time on this dark machine. And they won't complain: Harley has redesigned the seat, making it both sportier and more comfortable.

i love this sentence from the press release:"Dual front brake discs and an anti-lock braking system try to stop the monster". You've got to admit, it's scary to think about stopping when 320 kilos of metal are being pushed by the big Twin... Let's not forget that over 13 mkg are disgorged from the 1688 cm3. The steel frame, Dyna chassis, 49 mm fork and your paws on the big handlebars take care of the rest. On the streets, the Fat Bob wants to impose its authority. It's up to you to impose yours.

The round epai air filter bothers me enormously as it protrudes too much and I can't position my leg properly ??? Which model fe filter with its smaller reference is better adapted so as not to interfere with the position of the leg??? Thanks for your help 11/27/2020 22:33 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Lorenzo

incredible bike, excellent engine, great handling, very good bike, knowing that I've had quite a few bikes (rocket, MT01, vmax)ect....
the downside is simply the finish, which is a little light.
apart from that, I'm happy with my fat bob. 02/06/2017 20:15 Rating : 5/5 Respond to jc

hello everyone, I'm thinking of buying a fat bob, already tried it during the day, I'd like to know what the lighting is worth, is it up to scratch? and what solutions are there for the gumshoes in the rain. Thank you for your information and advice. I've always ridden a Japanese bike and now I've decided to treat myself differently, go big! 10/19/2016 18:01 Rating : 5/5 Respond to tophe

jean luc Model 2015

after switching to a xr1200x that i kept for 8 months (sale cause not comfortable for my wife), i switched to a new 2015 fat bob, plum color because black is full of it and very dirty, very pleasant engine, perfect handling in the dry, but be careful if it rains, the tires are like soap, as I'm 1m71 and the controls were a bit too far away, I chose to mount the low rider saddle, which moves me 5cm forward, and it's also much more comfortable for the passenger, fuel consumption when riding quietly under 5.5L, in town add 2L of /100 12/01/2015 18:06 Rating : 4/5 Respond to jean luc

Pat Model 2016

I too have just bought a Fat Bob, it's really fabulous. Can you give me the price of stage 2 because I too am thinking of doing it at 8000 km. Can you tell me the gain of stage 2? 10/30/2015 18:14 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Pat

charly Model 2016

hi everyone, i ordered my fat bob model 2016. My options are
at 1600km stage 1 SE filter and carto, big shots black Vance and Hines pots, and at 8000 km
stage 2, which includes SE 255 cams for a big torque boost
i can tell you that this motorcycle is fabulous to ride, but it comes with a standard European brake!
but I can tell you, having ridden one of these bikes, that it really kicks ass, with great throttle response, fabulous torque and sublime sound. 10/23/2015 15:35 Rating : 5/5 Respond to charly

charly

Hi there, well the price of stage 2 depends on the dealership where you have it fitted.
Count on average between 750/900 euros.
As for the gain, as I explained in my previous post, the torque gain is fabulous and acceleration is terrific, but to get this result you need a complete line of exhausts, such as Vance big shots 10/30/2015 22:08 Rating : 5/5 Participate in the conversation

you still need strong arms, but it's a pleasure to ride and it's as torquey as you could wish for. It's my first Harley, but I think I'll come back to it. 03/20/2015 13:23 Rating : 4/5 Respond to malavita

Quid du confort, du poids et des reprises ?

jumau Model 2014

Hello, I've just spent 2 years with an xr1200x. (For the record, I'm a woman) I'm switching for the comfort aspect but I'm a little sorry to be saying goodbye to engine power. I have a soft spot for the fat bob because of its sturdy build. My questions are, is it a comfortable bike for a 1m70? Is the weight a real problem? Does it have any recovery potential? Thank you for your answers. 11/21/2014 18:32 Rating : 4/5 Respond to jumau

rolio

Jumau, don't worry about the weight of the machine, the low center of gravity and the sound chassis will help you.it will take some time to get used to the balloon tires, but after a few hundred km, you'll find it easy.I haven't tested the xr, but if you lose a little power, you'll find yourself with a lot of torque.a 1700, , that's a bit much....big deal, go for it;)

rolio Model 2013

If it can seem heavy at the beginning, because of the inertia resulting from the balloon tires, it allows, once the instructions assimilated, to go to tickle beaks much more sharpened on the paper

i've just bought lr fat bob 2014 and i've added a stage 2 what do you mean by warming up the engine heats up? 02/22/2014 05:29 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Max Martel

charly

The engine heats up when the bike is original, due to the homologation after stage 1, and it breathes better and idles lower, so it doesn't heat up as much. 10/23/2015 21:46 Rating : 5/5 Participate in the conversation

FATBOB 2014

Megatron Model 2014

no revolution with the 2014 version, except for the extremely ugly rear light ... according to 99% of FAT BOB lovers on specialist forums ... a 2014 vintage of no interest ...
just a redesign of the seat, a different paint scheme and a bit of "DARK"... in short... Harley missed the mark this time on its model. Prefer a 2013 or earlier version, if possible with a Stage 1, which gives you more torque, less kick, and 10% more power, not to mention less heat. 09/27/2013 18:01 Rating : 4/5 Respond to Megatron
