For the 35th anniversary of the legendary Fat Boy, Harley-Davidson created the Fat Boy Gray Ghost: a limited edition with a mirror chrome finish that combines tradition and modern power. Only 1,990 copies for the entire land!
For many, Harley Davidson is the Fat Boy is the emblem of the American Cruiser, an icon that has rooted in the collective imagination thanks to the sound of the V-Mat engine, the muscular silhouette and, of course, to Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Terminator 2”. The year 2025 brings a special chapter to this saga with an exclusive model Fat Boy Gray Ghostwhich is far from witty: if it does not blind you with its chromed shine, it will fascinate you with its respect for history and for the modern technological arsenal.
The sparkling silver of the future
The name Gray Ghost is not a coincidence. It is a visual tribute to the 1990 original, but this time it is covered with something that we could call a “liquid mirror”. To create this effect, Harley-Davidson has used the steam physical deposition process (PVD), in which an aluminum alloy is transformed into steam into a vacuum chamber and linked to the surface of the tank and fenders through an electromagnetic charge. The result? Surfaces so shiny that you could rak yourself next to them.
A heritage that can be seen and heard – Gray Ghost
Fat Boy Gray Ghost is not just a chromed bodywork. The bike has numerous references to the original model of the 90s: a three -dimensional medallion on the tank with the classic flat wings, yellow accents on the cover cover and on the distribution and a leather strap on the tank: all elements that the veterans of the Harley community will immediately recognize. A modern reinterpretation of the “lakester” circles and large tires (160 mm front, 240 mm rear) give this medium the appearance of a motorized beast.
Muscle heartbeat
From the sparkling point of view, the heart of a modern cruiser is hidden: a Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-TWIN engine that develops 101 HP (75 kW) and 165 Nm (122 LB-FT) torque at 3,000 rpm. Compared to the original Fat Boy, equipped with the Evolution engine, it represents a leap in another galaxy of power and performance. With this engine, Gray Ghost reaches a maximum acceleration that is not declared, but believe me: you will not remain back.
In addition to the power, the Gray Ghost also offers modern equipment: three driving modes (Road, Rain, Sport), an ABS sensitive to inclination, traction control and an anti -lock braking system of the rear wheel when the accelerator suddenly reduces. Suspension? 49 mm front fork with double curvature valves, rear monoamortizer with adjustable plumber. Guaranteed comfort and stability.
A classic soul on long journeys
The height of the saddle of only 675 mm (26.6 inches) and the ergonomics that favors a relaxed posture clearly demonstrate it: Gray Ghost is a road motorcycle, not an athlete in curves. The wide handlebar, the pedals moved forward and the throne -shaped saddle invite to grind kilometers while the V -cylinder V -sings his deep song. And with a fuel consumption of 4.8 l/100 km (49 mpg), you can drive longer than your butt can bear with a 19 -liter tank (5 gallons).
Only for the elected – limited edition
Gray Ghost is part of Harley’s prestigious Icons Collection and is limited to 1,990 specimens all over the world, a number that commemorates the year of the first model. Each specimen is equipped with a unique standard number on the tank console, which will delight the collectors.
