Default What parts do you want for your bike that you are having trouble finding?

We want your ideas for sure. We are a small custom parts fabrication company (for now) and are seeking top broaden our repertoire of "Goodies" that we offer. First off, let me say that I realize you Dyna guys seem to be the most creative and talented when it comes to fabbing your own stuff and coming up with solutions for things that do not exist. You also have by far the best under $50 mod section. My hat is off to your talent and skills.

What is it you need for the Dyna's that just is not aviailable and that you'd be willing to drop a little coin on if it were available for a decent price(hopefully under $50)?

I spoke a fellow Dyna rider on Sunday and he mentioned that it would cool to have a mounting bracket for the leather teardrop style tool bag that mounts on the side of the 05, 06 models. It seems as those are the bastard years for his bike, the super glide.

I'm already off track here. How about some saddlebag quick release brackets that mount without having to relocate the rear signals? Another idea was a small tool bag style bag to mount over the battery box. I thin we should make varying sizes of forward controls and extensions to fit every rider of every size as well. Another idea was a backrest that will attack to a solo seat. Enough from me. You guys continue on.

Anything for saddle bags, the quick release attachement you mentioned, for instance.

So far they both sound quite doable. The list has begun. Keep them coming.

we have the most $50 mods cause we ACTUALLY do our mods... not say CHECK out the new mod i did... when in reality all they did was sign a check and someone else deserves the credit for the work!

Heel/Toe shifter - preferably that works with stirrups! Or, a shifter linkage with a splined shaft that will take two shift levers (like on the baggers).

I'm happy to see someone thats willing to listen to the Dyna community. Sometimes I think we're the bastard stepchild of the Harley world.
Thats probably why we do so much for ourselves. We're the last of a dying breed
