Enjoy a sporty ride on the Fat Bob 114 with a race-style inverted fork with single-cartridge technology, along with a 2-1-2 upswept exhaust. Both bikes include a hidden rear free-piston coil-over mono shock that’s easily adjustable to your preferences, though the Fat Bob 114 has a longer 56-millimeter stroke compared with the 43-millimeter stroke of the Fat Boy 114.

2023 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy 114 vs. Fat Bob 114 Dimensions
While the 2023 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy 114 and Fat Bob 114 both come from the cruiser class, there are a few differences between the two in their size and design that may make one a stronger choice for you. Some of the key similarities are in their name — wide-looking proportions and fat tires define both bikes.
The Fat Boy 114 is an inch wider and over an inch longer than the Fat Bob 114, and its seat rides a bit lower. Though both bikes feature wide tires, the Fat Boy 114 has significantly fatter tires — including 240-millimeter rear tires. You’ll ride in relaxed style on the Fat Boy 114, leaned back ever so slightly with your feet planted on the floorboards. The Fat Bob 114, on the other hand, leans you into an upright riding position through a slightly smaller rake angle and forward foot controls. The Fat Bob 114 lives up to the “Bob” part of its name with a lower overall weight than the Fat Boy 114. Both bikes include a rear passenger seat.
