Try DNA and Paugcho, both make one for the Dyna. Just need to change out front wheel to an older style sportster wheel.

Make sure you calculate rake/trail on which ever you decide to go with.

By the looks of your WG that looks like alot of rake, no problem with it wanting to flop at slow speeds ? It looks awesome though.. Any input would be welcomed. I also talked to one dealer & he said with a little mods it should work. I read someplace not more than 5 Deg , 3 better. Thanks.

I have 0 added rake from the 34 deg in the neck. In fact wideglides come with 2deg in the trees I now have 0 deg trees with 0 offset. Looks raked due to slight lift of bike and it being a springer, downtubes are longer go past wheel center and the rockers at the bottom push the wheel forward. I have a write up here
