Traded in my ol 2009 Fat Boy after 16 years. I probably shouldn’t have, but I took a look at the 2025 models.

My second mistake was setting up a test ride. That was all she wrote. G’bye 2009!

Welcome to the 2025 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (Whiskey Fire/Vivid Black)
with a Milwaukee-Eight 117 cu. in. Custom (Gen 2) motor

Of course I couldn’t leave it stock, but instead chose to violently murder my warranty by doing a shit-ton of upgrades.

Upgrades were all performed by me personally, not by any authorized (or particularly skilled) HD mechanic.

Surprisingly, it all worked out alright 🙂

After market bits (performance/functional):

Cobra “El Diablo” 2-into-1 full exhaust system
Arlen Ness “Slot Track” Inverted high flow air cleaner
Khrome Werks 10″ Fat Bobber Ape Hanger handlebars  (1.25″ dia)
Ciro Chicane grips
Saddlemen Renegade LS Solo seat
Screamin Eagle red spark plug wires (because red)
Red Shift RS528 Cam
S&S oil pump
S&S cam plate
S&S lifters/tappets
S&S cam chain tensioner
S&S Tappet cuffs
Fuel Moto adjustable pushrods
AIM SDR Variable Pressure Clutch
S&S Billet Compensator Ramp
DynoJet Power Vision 4 EFI Tuner

Willie G Skulls collection (bling!):

Teardrop mirrors
Derby cover
Gas cap
Shifter linkage
Shifter peg
Brake Pedal

I like my Willie G skulls. Sue me 😉

 

 

 

Before and after!
