Sporting plenty of chrome, a big Milwaukee-Eight 114 powerplant, and a fat 240mm rear tire, the 2022 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy 114 makes a big splash at the local watering hole. Also grabbing the attention of everyone in the vicinity are the thick Lakester aluminum wheels, square headlight, and prominent tank-mounted dash.
Although the base price is reduced this year, ABS is now an $819 option. Also, there’s a vague $750 “surcharge” on the 2022 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy 114, which bumps up the base Vivid Black model over the $20,000 mark.
