Default New-ish Dyna

Just finished off a 2000 FXD that was wrecked and the insurance company decided it wasn't worth fixing. Got it at a steal and only dropped about 2k in new parts and paint to get it up and going. Had a poker run on Sunday and got the bike finished (at least for now) about 8:30pm Saturday night. Bike ran like a champ all day long. Now my issue is chosing a bike each morning...

Little before pic. Doesn't really show much of the damage, but trust me when I say the fork tubes and triple trees were bent beyond use.

Sweet man! That is awesome. You've got a pretty nice street glide, so that would be a damn hard choice to choose between every morning! LOL good luck man. Gratz' on the new purchase!
