The Yamaha Road Star Warrior Forum

slammed280:

 My buddy just bought a 09 fat bob,  i rode it around the block it was really smooth but I dont think it was as fast or has as much torq as mine. It wasnt real comfortable either but I am just used to mine. How much hp does it have compared to a warrior.

WOW! I didn't start this thread with the intention of a "my dog's bigger than your dog" peeing contest!  I was of the understanding that this was a forum for those who love and support the Warrior.  Seems as though the boys from Milwaukee have infected a few of you.  Yeah sure, you might claim to be diehard Warrior fans, but how quickly you switch sides when you think someone is dogging out your precious "American Iron" Come on guys, who's side are you on?  I only meant to share a story of how an individual who was disrespecting the Warrior got put in his place.  I'm not so vain as to think I have the fastest bike on the street, nor am I a Moto GP rider by any means.  Not trying to say that I can outrun every HD on the road. I outran ONE.  Just be happy for a fellow Warrior, and if you are one of those fence-riders who own both, and you feel that your HD (or whatever else you have) is faster than my Warrior, I don't really care to hear it.  Good job, you win!  Not angry at all, just made me chuckle at the amount of HD support we have here amongst our little family.  So just sayin' take it easy boys!  Didn't mean to call you out!

Centerline:

Stock, they are just so-so (Fat Bob's).  Of course, they are 7 cubes shy of the mighty Warrior's engine displacement.

I got a raised Fat Bob with just 1 more cubic inch in the motor than a stock Warrior and 50 lbs more weight besides.  As long as your Warrior won't crush a full Yamaha Stage IV Warrior, it won't keep up with my FB on the straights, and maybe not in any twisties as well.

BTW, the engine work I had done to the Fat Bob was the same amount of dollars as a full Yami Stage IV kit.

Wow, not even through page 1 and you had to pull out the old, "Yeah but it can't beat my Harley" card. Feeling a little insecure these days are we?

And there's the cavalry!  Thanks 07midnight!

INJEKTER, wasn't pointing fingers at you bud!  Please don't let me offend you.  Just playing around with all you HD guys!

As Darkstar said, it doesn't matter what you ride just that you do. I happen to ride a 1999 HD Ultra (aka geezer) Glide along with the Warrior. Yessir, time for some kiddies to grow up and just enjoy the riding experience.
