Both those bikes are hot. 35th and the Bob. Of course, the cream of the line up would be a vivid black FXDWG!!!

Just poking fun, I love em all, just love mine best.

If the factory "makes" a rigid chopper, or bobber.......its not the same. Dont get me wrong, the Bob is sweet, I am just saying, the thing that really gets my attention is a stock bike that someone bobbed or chopped and made one of a kind. I held my Sportster, with the intent of takeing it apart and making it again...my way. Now the 06 WG, HD did it just right for me.....man I love her! Anyhow, just my .02 cents.

It wouldnt be a debate since 99% of people know the dyna rules hands down!!! There would just be explanations as to why.

Guess that's why there are more Sloptails sold than Dynas.

On a serious note; I've never been interested in the rubber-mounts, and so haven't really looked them over. Where does the swingarm attach? I've been told it pivots/is attached via transmission mounts, instead of the frame.

Yeah, I'm an ol' geezer. (Goes off muttering about, "New-fangled fool injection, rubber motors, ....)
