Talking First time HD owner... FXDX acquired!

My first Harley Davidson... 2004 Dyna Super Glide Sport FXDXi



Slapped a few bolt ons on her...

Bung King One Piece 6" Risers
Speed Merchants Riser Bushings
Flo V2 MX Foot Pegs
Saddlemen LS Step Up Seat
Moons MC Low Pro LED Tail Light V2
Moons MC Black Tail Light Bezel
Fox Shox IFP-R QS3

Biltwell Tracker Bar
San Diego Customs Bar Bag
Unidentified aftermarket air cleaner
Cobra 2-1 exhaust, model unknown

Motor is bone stock 88 as far as I know. I'll probably replace the cam chain tensioner. Not sure if I want to do cams while at it.

I'm used to metric bikes that redline at 12-14k rpm and are smooth as silk in every way.

HD V-Twin tho... Low end torque is addictive. The crude vibrations and engine rumble is strangely alluring. Gear box is incredibly clunky, but it don't matter. There's no logical reason I should even like this bike. But, I love it. It's unexplainable.
