I know it's not fair comparing a 1971 FX to a 2008 FXDF FatBob but you can see from the pictures that they have some simularities and a lot of differences. The 71 is 74 cubic inches and the 08 is 96 cubic inches, plus it's rubber mounted so your teeth don't shatter. I don't have an original photograph of my 71 but here's a reasonable facscimile of a stock one. Like I said before, I took off the tank, bobtail fender with seat, front fender and the exhaust and put on a Sportster tank, cobra seat with sissybar, chrome front fender and shorty exhaust. It was a real hit when I drove it to Port Dover in the spring of 1971.
