What are you looking to accomplish with this set up. Sounds interesting.

RE: Dyna with V-Rod forks?
are you looking for just the lowers/sliders or the entire forks and front end...?
if your just interested in the lowers/sliders, they are almost exactly the same. the only difference is that the left side has tabs for a second disk and the dust caps are different.

If all you want is the dual disks it would be cheaper (and easier probably) to buy the kit to change to duals from Dennis Kirk or J&P.

I didn't know there was such a kit on the market. Does it include a factory looking slider withcaliper bosses for the second leg? I'm not a fan of anything decorative just for the sake of it, so I stick with factory parts as much as possible.
I've decided to go with wide glide trees mostly for looks anddual discs for more brakes. Been thinking about this for awhile and have since decided to go lower too. I did some measurementson a Boband a V-Rod side by side at the dealer about a year ago, and if memory serves me right the V-Rods forks are about an 1 1/2" shorter overall. The sliders are also substantially shorter, but can't recall how much now. Anyway, I have it worked out as to how I would go dual discs on the Dyna forks, but just thought after seeing a pic of a Dyna with V-Rod forks maybe I would likethat better.
Another thing I've been tossing around is changing out the Bob's decorative fork seal covers with the plain ones froma V-Rod? Something I've yet to measure to see if it's possible, but it sure looks like a go.

RE: Dyna with V-Rod forks?
If you just want dual disks on a 06 or 07 dyna, i am sure that the disk from a v-rod is a direct fit on there. All it needs is bolting on and then sort out the master cylinder/lines etc. No need to change the forks at all..
