Your 07 Dyna motor will not work with any particular ridgid frame. You'll have to find a frame builder/supplier that can produce/sell one for that particular motor.

Funny Paul! I´m just looking at the same thing. Found some stuff on the net, google "Ridig frame for twin cam A" ... or .. " Ridig frame for Dyna Engine"

Can be done! Keep me posted if you found any good. I´ll do the same!

If you get bored easy and want something to chop up, it might be cheaper to buy a used older sportster. Way more frame options and IMHO will look better in the long run. Just look at Lolife's bobber!
