Yeah, but IMHO it's not in the same class as the dyna, and the dyna isn't marketed to be a hot rodded muscle bike in it's stock form. I wouldn't mind having a (free) warrior (wouldn't pay for ugly thing), but I'd rather get a Triumph or Ducati before that Yami.

Dyna's are the sh*t. You can do anything on a dyna. From the race track too riding it across the country. It's harley's all around best bike.

I suppose the beauty or ugliness is in the eye of the beholder, though I think I know where you might be coming from if you are thinking about the weird stock can on the Warrior, but this photo of my last Warrior is not a stock Warrior either....

Agreed!! Tons of different styles just on this forum ..... but the basic platform is all the same ...... and it's a winner for sure.

I think my bike is ugly too...just a "better fit" of ugly for me than the warrior. I think the Triumph street tripple is really ugly, but I would love to have one! The new Duc monsters may may have pissed of the traditional ducati crowd, but I think they are beautiful pieces of art. Personal tastes I guess. But you can't tell me that the warrior had as much soul as the dyna. And there are plenty of better performing "soul-less" bikes than the warrior out there.

I would agree on the dyna being one of the best all around picks! I rode a stretched out chopper before and I don't ever see me owning one! The ride isn't that great, sucks handling, and from what I have seen not to reliable either!

Hell yeah man, true to the last word. Day I buy a chopper is the day that I stop riding seriously.

I don't think that day will ever come.

Good to have reminders, but honestley I never forget! I know a couple guys with those custom-flashy-stretched-low as hell-300 tire-dust trophys. But I know a whole hell of alot more with dynas & baggers! Dynas have a huge range of capabilities...aint nothin that has as good a base as a dyna!
