In 2003, Harley-Davidson celebrated its 100th anniversary. And of course this had to be celebrated lavishly.
All over the world; Tokyo, Sydney, Barcelona, Hamburg, Toronto and of course Milwaukee. It was claimed that the whole world vibrated for a moment because of the V-Twins.
For many bikers, the only weak point of the mega celebration was the appearance of Sir Elton John, who appeared as a "surprise guest." Those who were there could witness how "Captain Fantastic" emptied the festival grounds within a very short time. It was learned from insiders that Bruce Springsteen had canceled because of a better-paid double act in New York. Nonetheless, the 100th anniversary festivities were a huge deal for the city of Milwaukee, which is why Harley-Davidson was happy to be given the "key to the city" for 2008.
And of course, with an occasion like this comes a special Harley-Davidson version.
The Fat Boy 100Th Anniversary version. A super composition of black, silver and chrome.
But even more distinctive: A grayish band runs all over the motorcycle. This makes for an even tougher look. But when you only look closer you see it. In the light gray part is always ''Harley-Davidson'' written. An additional detail which makes this motorcycle even more unique.
Our opinion
A special 100th Anniversary edition, a super composition and original Dutch. For us this combination makes this a real Collectable.
The right Fat Boy rims, the chrome parts and the leather accents and details. And to finish it off, the previous owner installed a Vance & Hines exhaust system. The sound was already heavenly, but now it's completely finished.
