I am a new Rider been riding it 1200 custom for a while. Now looking to upgrade to a Dyna local dealership has a 2015 lowrider, I seem to really like that one. But they also have a 2007 Super Glide and a 2012 Super Glide Custom. Was wondering if some hardcore dyna people could tell me what was so cool or special about the Super Glide models. Thanks

you'll spend heavy just to get the other two anywhere near the low rider.

Cool or Special?
The SuperGlide is a basic model with no frills, a blank canvas.

What I was thinking, I just always heard people loved super glide. Was wondering why. The 15 lowrider comes with v&h pipes, and stage 1 upgrade. Already got preapproval through my credit union. Put down a payment to hold till I get back home (trucker)

Definitely the right choice on the lowrider. I still consider it a blank canvas as well however I see all harleys as blank canvases until the owner makes it theirs. I love customizing my bike almost as much as riding it just because I'm making it "mine".

low rider is dual disk and 103 engine. V&h "pipes" could be a blessing or a curse. Low rider came stock with a good 2-1. If it is gone, be wary of what is there.

if for nothing more than the dual front brakes, go for the low rider.

2015 gets the regular 103" engine.
2016 LR's get a 103" HO (High Output) engine as stock.
I 2nd the dual rotors up front.
The SuperGlide is "polished" where the FXDL's are plated. This may have an effect as the miles accumulate.

And is there a really huge difference between the 103 and the 103 high output
