Pros and Cons in comparison

Harley-Davidson Softail Fat Boy S 2017

Don't worry, the S in the names Fat Boy S and Slim S does not stand for Sport - only for more displacement and a little more power. Nothing has changed in the essence of the two models, but the sovereignty has been increased immensely. Added to this is the cooler look thanks to the many black parts - Screamin' Eagle stands for top performance in terms of both performance and styling!

Powerful acceleration of the Screamin' Eagle engine

beautiful workmanship

good brakes

comfortable seating position

stable handling.

Strong heat development of the engine

little leaning freedom
