You can bet there will be a gathering of Fat Boy's at this annual Harley meet..
http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=13046
The Fat Boy became famous for its starring roll in Terminator 2: Judgement Day, with Arnold Schwarzenegger making the famous Harley jump. Which next to The Great Escape bike jump, is probably the most famous in cinema history.
The T2 fat boy has been acquired for the Harely Davidson Museum in Milwaukee, and still shows significant production wear from filming:

Hi All, This one could even get a non bike lover, (like me), start drooling. Then you add sound effects and I think I`m being teased. Oh choices, choices.  I`m sure this one will make for some very happy builders. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Here's an interesting tidbit I learned yesterday evening. Everyone remembers the T2 Fat Boy. BUT in the original "The Terminator" Arnold was also driving a motor cycle. Coincidentally it's this one: http://www.model-space.c...ild-the-honda-cb750.html
