Why thankyou Steve
i dont want to offend anyone but it's definatly not a bike for the limp wristed!
It's a handfull but i realy like it sitting in it feels strange but not nasty, it's pretty comphy even with my back problems
I'm a happy boy two completly different bikes both very usable machines i cant wait for summer if it ever gets here

Now all i have to do is dig out the concrete step that leads to my garage from the back lane 9" i am planning on drilling a series of holes getting deeper from the garage door to the back lane then chisseling it out into shallow steps, i was going to start it yesterday but my SDS+ drill decided to die on me, i had a quick look at the sales note invoice thing 11/4/2011
2 year warrenty so i took it back to screwfix and they gave me a new one! result or what? if it's dry tommorrow i will be drilling and chisseling

A big heads up for mr screwfix Dai
My bike shines when it rains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not really my bag, but should be a good laugh with the big motor. I much prefer the Night rod style bikes

I can't ride forward controls as I have freakishly short legs.

Sorry I can't believe that :lol:

Even if I liked a fat boy there would be no chance i could have one
Can you imagine telling people in the pub that you rode a fat boy no way could i do that

Interesting fact time the fat boy name came from the two bombs dropped on hiroshima (spelling ) Fat man & Little boy
I suppose the name could have been worse
Little man for instance
My bike shines when it rains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

especially in the current climate you wouldn't want to say you've ridden a little boy either :) .. and as a fat man I know I don't want you saying you've ridden a fat man as well :)

Some bike names have been cleverly worked out my favourite being the Suzuki Hyabusa (spelin ) a bird of prey that eats blackbirds
