I saw this video too....no idea why you’d do that other than...you could. I always find it interesting that people still somehow feel the Dyna platform is superior to the new Softail M8, ha, it simply is not.

In addition MoCo spent thousands of hours of R&D, testing, engineering, etc to come up with the final platform and what....slapping a Dyna swing arm and bagger shocks on the M8 Softail is supposed to be an improvement to what was engineered......Frankenstein bike.
