I am back on a Dyna, after 16 years riding a softail Deuce, and an owner of a 2008 FLTR Road Glide since 2008.

Same old bull_duck that has posted many posts under the name bull_duck; I don't "own" the name, so can't guarantee that every bull_duck post on forums I don't visit are mine.

I had a FXD Dyna Low Rider before da' Deuce. Sold the FXD and bought the FXSTD. Loved the look and ride of the Deuce. Fast forward 16 years, still loving the Deuce. Along the way my needs and age changed. Bought a Road Glide, and somehow drifted into semi- retirement. I had riddled the Deuce as my to and from work sled.

I sold the beloved Deuce and purchased a 2015 FXDWG. It had 400 miles on it, and about $3.5K of extra add-ons that are much to my liking. Feel sorry for the original buyer -- but not that sorry.

While not new to this forum, with 244 posts since March 2008, I am re-registering cause I have many questions on my new Dyna Wide Glide. My wife rides a 2008 FXDSE(2) Anniversary. Beautiful bike. But, I have it set up for her shortness at 5'2", and does not fit at my comparative tallness of 6' 1/2".

So, question 1, where do recent year FXDWG folks hang out on this forum? So, if I ask a question, those folks are most likely to see my question, and respond?


The genuine ... Bull .... Duck ....

Just bought a 2016 Wide Glide in March. Only have 700 miles on it so far (working too much, not enough good riding weather, etc).

My first Harley; enjoying it very much, so far!

You're in the right place. I often wish we had a better representation of older Dyna. Most seem to be late model. Lots of tall riders here, too. Ask away.
