question how old is the dyna wideglide?

 

It came out in 1980, so it's 26 yrs old, well 27 now that the '07 are out.

 

looked in HD timeline and can't find that one

 

wg came out in 1980 the dyna wg iam thinking 92 or 3

 

Better yet, what engine came in the '84 FSWG Wide Glide (note abscence of Dyna nomenclature) and in the FXST Softail that same year?

What engine was in the '85 Wide Glide and Softails?




Dynas were introduced in '91 (as the Sturgis), there was no Dyna Wide Glide in '91 or '92. Then, I have a gap in my catalogs for two years, but there's a Dyna Wide Glide in '95...so could be '93 or '94 for the first one....can't be sure.

 

believe your 84 wg was a 80 inch shovel and the 84 soft had the evo far as 85 they had the evo

 

We have a winner!


Oh, and I think the first Dyna WG was '93.

 

All I can say is that my Sergeant major has a 94(I think) Wide Glide but his is a Soft Tail not a Dyna. It plays tricks on your mind because there are no rear springs.

 

wg never used a sofftail frame.all stockers are with exposed rear springs

 

When he first told me it was a Soft Tail Wide Glide I thought he just didn't really know what model it was. But it has no springs and is definitely a wide glide with more rake than a soft tail. He says it is stock but i don't know.
