The Fatboy has gone

Well, I've gone and got me a new ride

I did a review on the FLD a while back, and now I've gone and got one.

Took a little getting use to, didn't feel like I owned the road like I did on the old girl, but now, I opened the throttle tonight and nearly pulled my arms out

Still not a fan of the chimney stack of an exhaust but I will live with it for a while, I need to keep the noise down on these 30 and 40 MPH roads.

Don't want to draw attention to me in 6th doing 41 now do I

No doubt pictures will follow

First shots of the new girl in my life



Her new home



From the front



Lads at work thought it would be good to put something on the bottom of the plate for me

Re: The Fatboy has gone

So, I'm no good with these new-fangled colours.

Is that cerise? I'm hearing lots about cerise these days, so please confirm......

Is that cerise?

Perhaps I should get the opinions of a few of our female members? They're the only gender that, apparently, can see feckin cerise.

Unless that's cerise, of course.
