Harley Fat Boy FLSTF
I’ve just taken delivery of my Harley Fat Boy. I couldn’t work out what the letters meant but I finally worked it out.
Example customised Fat Boy below:
What does FLSTF mean?
F is the engine indicator; an overhead valve engin, 74, 80, or 88 cubic inch. 88 cubic inch engine is standard for newer models
L means that it has a wide front tire and Hydra-Glide front forks
ST stands for “Softtail” (which means it LOOKS like a hard tail, but has hidden shocks)
The final letter; F means it’s got a foot-shift - but in modern language, it now means Fat Boy :)
I’m told that the Harley Davidson company employs a 973 year old wizard who’s job it is to instill a touch of magic on every Fat Boy that comes off the line. This magic changes dull and drab rides into the experience of a lifetime.
I can’t wait to turn heads :)
