Gooday Guys,
Something that has been bugging me since I bought the FB almost 3 years ago is the year of the bike. The bike was bought as a 2005 model, and as previously posted has the tank emblem stating that it is th 15th anniversary model where the " USA " is usually. No other bits/markings other than that. As I understand it, 2005 was the anniversary year for the FB? Once I got the bike home and it had been looked over by some mates it was pointed out that it is actually a 2004 ( Manufacture date on the frame is 07/04 ). So I assumed I had been conned on the year of the bike. A few minutes ago I was looking in the tips section on here and went to the HD website to check my vin. According to HD it is a 05 model. So I am now really confused. It really doesn't matter all that much, I still love the FB , but it would be good to get this out of my head. Does anyone know what is going on ? All help gratefully appreciated and sorry for the longish post.
