I bought this bike in June of 2009, trading in my previous 2005 Fat Boy

In 2007 the HD Motor Company made some changes to the Fat Boy, all for the better (In my opinion).

These changes were both style and performance upgrades

Style upgrades:

1. They replaced the solid wheels with near-solid wheels

2. They updated the Fat Boy emblem and paint job.

3. They upgraded the tires: Front tire went from a 90mm to a nice wide 140mm, rear tire went from a 150mm to a PHAT 200mm tire.

4. Shortened the rear fender so that it doesnt wrap as far around the tire.

5. Heftier front risers

Performance upgrades:

1. They replaced the Twin-Cam 88B engine with the Twin-Cam 96B Increasing the displacement from 1450cc to 1584cc with a commensurate increase in horsepower and torque.

2. They replaced the 5 speed gear box with a 6 speed gearbox 6th gear is a true overdrive.
