Several new mods this past few weeks: Made an external breather for my S&S Stealth A/C, used stock bolts and ran some fuel line from the bolts to a T fitting and zip tied a filter behind the A/C. Relocated the Coil with DK Customs kit and deleted the Cow Bell, installed the DK 105 decibel horn up front. Purchased and installed TBR Comp S. pipes, retuned with FP3 and once all complete I installed a brand new Battery and test rode it 1200 miles to Utah and back, so far everything runs and works great, no issues and my little filter for the external breather is still dry on the outside and hasn't leaked or dripped a single drop.
I was actually thinking about selling the Dyna earlier in the year to get a Pan America (ridden a few of them now and really love the power) but after bike shopping I decided not to spend the money and just hold on to the Dyna for now, so did these few mods to freshener her up a bit. Made exhaust gasket tool, from you tube, it worked great. Zion Utah Just tried the red wires, probably change to black later ... Not to crazy about them. Color of pipes after the long ride.

Winter is finally gone and beautiful weather has arrived here in Minnesota, so I decided it was the perfect time to rebuild my front wheel that I've been putting off since last fall. I broke a couple spokes last year, most likely due to me neglecting to check the tension for far too long, and the rim was getting a bit rusty in spots, so I decided a full rebuild was in order. Once I got it apart I figured it was a perfect time to polish the hub. I think I'm going to spend a little more time with some ultra fine compound, but pretty happy with the results so far.

Looking Good. When assembling I use antisieze on the nipples and a good gun lube on the nipple inside the wheel.
I also went to stainless nipples to help with rust inside the wheel.
Tightened the head bolts that keep coming loose and swapped back to the fastback seat. The seat is more comfortable and it wasn't sitting right with me the new profile fender. I realized it was never gonna look like a 40s HD with that fairing and the profile part of the fender just was making it look like a hodge podge of parts. I think it works better now. Gonna have to get used to lower seating position again though.
