Default where are the Dyna customs shops?

With the Dynas been what I think the fastest growing HD family (with all the new model... and a little help from SOA) it's strange that no shop has started doing mostly Dyna customs? Why is that? I would love to see some page of a shop that does one off custom Dynas and makes a couple of interesting parts to fit a mod a stock Dyna.

Here are some mods that I would love to see:

- a base plate to mount a Deuce taillight on a bob rear fender
- different styles of gas tanks
- tailights
- and any other cool mod

.... basicly I would love to se a page like the one of Fab Kevin, but with mostly stuff for Dynas!

Because the Dyna is not the popular model compared to the general softail/touring/sportster lines.

Yes, custom dynas would be cool but they seem to have a much smaller, devoted following compared to the masses who buy the softails,etc.

How big a "shop" are you expecting?

Member "Last Saint" and crew do some nice Dynas, also check out Tramp Cycle in Japan for ideas...they have some FXD's with XL tanks.....

I spent enough on my Dyna to buy a CVO bagger but went with one color of paint and no chrome...Dyna's are generally bought to ride with more aggression than baggers and softies. Also, baggers and softies are often bought by people with more money who want "cool looks" and/or acres of sheetmetal to paint.

You might try a Google search for shops in your area ...if you live in a large city, there's probably a shop or two that will do it...if you're willing/able to spend the $$$.

You've got an Asian fetish... at least when it comes to bikes.
