Default 2" or 3" Tank Lift


I wanted to get an opinion from members with regard to either a 2" or 3" tank lift for this Dyna. Thanks for your input.

Got a 2" from HDF member Jackyl and very happy with it. People look at the bike and know there is something different about it but they just can't put their finger on it.

I'm starting to love my jackyl 3". Apparently 2003 wideglides cannot use two inch so I got the 3 and wasn't sure at first. But now you couldn't make me take it off. 3" is not as subtle but not too much either IMO. Most guys seem to like the 2" better and one major bonus is you most likely will not need to change your crossover line or evap hose. Not that is a big deal. Both hoses came with my kit from jackyl and the quality is really good on the lifts.

I really like my 3". It shows more of the frame than the 2", but on a black bike, it is not really noticeable.
Folks withthe "other" colors on the tins have reported that the 3" tank lift looks a little odd, due to the black frame.

In my opinion, that's what they get for buying the wrong color bike, in the 1st place[sm=joke.gif][sm=oopssign.gif][sm=sorry.gif]

I started with a 2 incher, but switched to the 3 incher. I gave my dad the 2 incher and both of us are totally happy with them. Again, product of Jackyl...
