that 'eyebrow' above the headlight (eg FXD 2003), has it a function or is it just for the looks?
Has anyone a pic without eyebrow and with original headlight?

De,
The headlight is mounted "upside down" to the eyebrow as shown in diagram below.
I've seen images of Dyna's over her which have the headlamp mounted to the lower tripple tree...I think it was done by Joe the PowderPro (JRK5892). I'll do a search for you!
Never liked the way it looked on my '00 FXDL and spent a bunch of $ to get rid of it. Set the bike apart from the other dynas, at least until HD came to the same conclusion and did away with the eyebrow on all the dynas.
I kinda miss the eyebrow which were on 3 of my older bikes , i would remember the first thing i would do was to go buy a chrome one , ah that made my day !
