Default Best Mag for Dyna Folks?

Alright dyna boys and girls, which magazine is the best and why? I'm looking for a magazine that doesn't just focus on the far out customs. Also would be nice to have articles on mods that can be done by the guy in his garage with average mechanical skills. Thanks dudebros!

This is it right here. I can not imagine there is a better source for info pertaining to maintenance, repair or mods to Dynas anywhere in the world.

I really like "American Iron", I have been reading a back issue all after noon. Have great articles. Some very technical and some for a do-it-yourselfer. Very good reading and all Harley Davidson.

I have to agree - the mags are really not very good. I only buy HotBike because my kids have fundraisers at school. If you stick with this site and are willing to wade thru the "I painted this black - wadda ya think ..." crap, then the info here can be quite useful.

I like American Iron because it has your everyday bikes that are on this forum. They do articles on new bolt ons like fork braces, how to get 10hp for $1500 and general articles we all can use and do in our garage. With these bolt ons they even tell you the tools you need.

American Iron's the only one I read somewhat often...I like The Horse too, but they've got a hardon for rigid bobbers...very cool, but not very useful to me with the ride I've got.

I find playboy to be quite useful. It takes my mind of not being able to ride when its cold and wet.
