Default Dual disk on wide rakes

Still on the road and one of the crew found a nail on blue ridge parkway... so we are at a wayne cycle shop getting a new tire put on.. and i see these:






Dual on a wide rake with a light




Nice... honorable mention

Why did i have to plot, plan, and move the heavens? Yamaha gets, it why cant Harley. Or at least bring back the kit

Fd up

I really have a sense that you and the Wide Glide never quite bonded and if that is the case there's no harm in that. If you're attracted to another machine you should check and see if it will more properly fill your needs.

Motorcycles, luckily, are not like women in one regard; they don't get jealous and nasty if you do have a wandering eye

But there is one thing; you'd better still hang around the Dyna Forum. You've developed a large knowledge base that's come from real world experience!

I don't know that I can really agree with this... I'm pretty sure some weird **** has gone down in my garage when I'm not around... I try to ride them equally and modify them equally to avoid mechanical warfare...

I suppose, if you can live with yourself for buying a Japanese imitation Softail.

Harley "gets" marketing, so dual disks will show up when enough customers want them.

I don't care how much better the front brakes are, those bikes look like something Hunter Thompson created on his worst binge.

Really?...it's better that way. How many people do you think you'll run into during your lifetime that will be sporting Dual Big Nesses on a WG?...Hmm



But since your showing them (well those duals are actually Yami's 4-pot monoblocs)...I'm going to be putting some of their 6-pot monoblocs with brembo's radial master cyl on few HDs

If that is a "Raider" it'll pack up and leave every Harley, regardless of engine size. (except the VROD.)

Think I'm kidding? Go ride one. You've been warned...
