[Kevin Cafe Racer]

Is there a meeting at the White Swan EVERY Tuesday evening?? Cheers, Kevin

[Grumpy Old Git]

Yes Kevin, until the end of Summer that is!

[Kevin Cafe Racer]

Thank you me old mate! I'll have a look next Tuesday then. Can you tell me what a 'FLFBS' stands for? I'm thinking of buying a Harley in the near future and need to learn all the different models, of which there seems to be so many!! Cheers, Kevin

[Grumpy Old Git]

No idea!

But, it is the 2018 Harley 'Fat Boy' with the 114 Engine.

[Kevin Cafe Racer]

OK many thanks. A 114 engine - I guess that's cu inches, which means nothing to me, so will try to convert to cc !! I'm learning! Kevin

[mikestrivens]

The Harley website does the conversion for you:

107 = 1745cc

114 = 1868cc

[Kevin Cafe Racer]

Thanks - that a big engine and a lot of torque no doubt! Cheers, Kevin

[Grumpy Old Git]

Not as big as my previous 'steed' - Triumph Rocket III

[mikestrivens]

Yes I used to have a Harley Fatboy when I lived in London. It was brilliant for posing on the Kings Road especially with the Screaming Eagles. But in those days the brakes were rubbish and it is a very big heavy bike. I think the brakes have improved since. But they are really cool if that is your thing. The solid wheels and all the chrome take some looking after. But they do look fantastic and sound amazing.

Actually made it along there last night......a few pics of some of the bikes there......

[Hoggs]

oooh I like that Yamaha RD 550 is it?

[Tango]

Which Yamaha, [mention]Hoggs[/mention] ......there's an RD400DX, an RD350LC and an XS650C or the red and black one, which i think is a FZ8. ( or maye FZ6).....

The silver one is the 400DX, the black one with the red stripes on the tank is the 350LC and the plain black one with higher bars is the 650C ( I had one of those)......

[Hoggs]

Which Yamaha, @Hoggs .....

 

Oh you want concise questions? you've come to the wrong place... 350lc appears to be what I was after!

[Tango]

Just back from this week's meet.....And a small collection of bikes to drool over.....

[Hoggs]

Love those crazy arse Honda CBXs

[Hoggs]

ok ok so I've had some wine... and really they should have been called Honda CBVIs

[Tango]
