I would bet that they came out with the Orange Fat Bob because the Yellow one's are not selling and still sitting on the showroom floors. That would be my guess

Odd that it doesn't have the CVO air intake...

I disagree about the yellow - but then I have a yellow!!

I had to wait for mine and couldn't find one in Tx that wasn't spoken for - but perhaps it's different elsewhere.

I ran the D&D full exhaust on mine with the race tuning and find it runs extremely well - no discernible flat spots.  It's loud - but not quite as loud as straight pipes or the thunderheader.  I was leaning toward waiting for a t header but far as I know they still haven't made one and 110 bikes are dyno'ing better (or so I'm told by some performance mechanics) with the D&D system.

I'll have to take a picture of the bike with the exhaust - tho i'd still rather wait until I get it finished (bags and a few other items yet to go).

I've seen a couple of pictures of this color and they had the heavy breather and the blunt cut mufflers. 

I know this bike is limited to 2450.  So I wonder how many of each color will be produced.  Probably gonna make my Black/Fire more rare.

The local dealer tells me that MOCO didn't add the fourth color, O/B, they dropped the Yellow.  If this is true the Yellow CVO Fat Bob will be really rare.  Harris4cars and Bunkerbeer, as well as others, may have got really lucky on their bikes.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder for sure. Yellow is the attention getter. Even those that don't care for it. Open up the SE brochure and all the colors are at the top of the page, tell me which bike you see first on the SE Fat Bob page, YELLOW! Now you may not like the color but thats where the eyes fall. Had a nice day a few weeks ago here in the east and I ran down to the 7-11. While inside I looked out the window and there's 4 guys standing over the bike pointing and talking. Could be they where talking about how hideous it was but I like to think they were drooling with envy. I have to also say that when I pay $25,00 plus for anything, I want it to stand out in a crowd Nothing does that like the yellow SE FB. And I really hope they have stopped making the yellow, just makes us owners that much more unique. I don't know where this came from but I love it and if my yellow SE FB could talk I think this is what it would say, "You laugh at me because I'm different. I laugh at you because you're all the same". BTW, I'm not laughing at any SE FB, I think they are all great looking bikes and I hope to soon see an orange one as that has got to be a great looking bike. Lastly it's good to see some discussion on this forum.

One of our members checked w/the MoCo for the '02 SERK's you can see that thread here - Finally production Numbers on the 2002 SERK. Also if you check the "Sticky Threads - Find Sticky Threads Here" at the top of each model specific board you may find some other models have this info.
