This motorcycle is a naked display of power and potency. It features a Milwaukee-Eight 114 motor that sends 118 ft-lbs to torque to a meaty 180mm Dunlop Harley-Davidson D429 rear tire. The inverted fork has cartridge internals, and a pair of 300mm discs are ready to help slow the 2023 Harley-Davidson Fat Bob 114 down, as needed. ABS is optional.
With 16-inch wheels and around five inches of suspended wheel travel at each end, the seat height is a casual 28 inches. A fist-forward flat-bend handlebar is matched with defiant forward-mounted foot controls.
The bobbed fenders add to the attitude, along with a 3.5-gallon peanut tank. There’s nothing subtle about the exhaust system, with two brazen mufflers handling the spent high-test. When we tested the Fat Bob 114, we found out just how tough it is.
The 2023 Harley-Davidson Fat Bob 114 puts this all together for less than $20k for the Vivid Black version, even after including the $750 Surcharge.
