Look on the sidewall and find the manufacture date. Probably the original tires from 05. Any motorcycle tire over 5 y/o needs to be replaced and put in the trash!!!!

No it isn't, 2006 Dyna's were all injected. If you look, you will find all the FX (Dyna series) model designations for 06 end with an "I", as in injected. They also had the first six speed, new cam plate and hydraulic tensioners and their share of issues!

Harley Davidson’s sportster motorcycle is the first Harley Davidson range of bikes which come with EFI installed. This started in the year 2007 itself. EFI is Electronic Fuel Infection, which comes as original Harley equipment in bikes like FLH, Buell’s, Dyna’s and Softails all offer EFI since the year 2007. An EFI was always an option since 1996 but technological changes and a concern for the environment has caused Harley to make advancements in the direction of producing bikes with EFI already installed.

So, does this '05 have the hydraulic tensioners that were giving problems? Are there any other issues that would concern the new owner? He really is a Noob to bikes.
