HARLEY-DAVIDSON Fat Boy (1993-1994) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1993, the American bike maker released the fourth consecutive model year of the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy, a soft-tail cruiser machine that debuted in 1990.

The bike was part of the iconic Fat Boy line-up in Harley-Davidson's range and was known for its muscular appearance, fat styling, and excellent performance. From the day it debuted until 1993, the bike didn't feature any changes and packed the same classic cruiser elements that defined the model.

For appearance, the bike rolled on full disc wheels covered by valanced fenders, steered by a wide handlebar, offering great comfort with its wide, one-piece dual seat and forward-mounted controls. The path was lighted by a round headlight with a chromed housing, and the engine was fueled by a teardrop-shaped fuel tank.

The 1993 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy was powered by a 1,337cc four-stroke V-twin air-cooled engine with a 38 mm Keihin Carburetor, delivering an output power of 67 hp at 6,000 rpm and 97 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 2,350 rpm.

The power was delivered to a five-speed manual transmission with a cable-operated, dry multiple discs clutch and sent to the rear wheel through a final belt drive.

The bike's suspension was handled by a 39 mm telescopic fork on the front and two concealed spring preload-adjustable shock absorbers on the rear. A 292 mm disc with a four-piston caliper, both front and back, achieved the stopping power.
