I'd like to rip that thing up N.C. state route 129. Or V.A. route 311 from Salem all the way into W.VA.

Just when I think that I don't need anymore bikes, this picture gets posted.

My XR now needs a big brother!

I'm diggin it. I like that swingarm. I like those inverted forks with dual disc brakes. Didn't the original have adjustable front suspension? Wasn't the adjustment available external to the forks?

One thing I always liked on my old long gone bike was the air forks. If I was just gonna cruise, I would put a little less air in them. If I knew I was going to ride harder I'd put a little more. The valve was centrally located and would equalize between the two forks so no way to screw it up.

I've always thought about that sort of thing for my WG.

Same here. I LOVE my FXDB. A few things I always felt could be improved on my bike are addressed with the new FXDX. I told myself I would never get rid of my FXDB unless someone came out with this bike...

Inverted forks, dual disc brakes, tubeless tires, tall rear suspension, speedo/tach combo maybe? ...and is that stainless steel lines up front?

A bike made to be ridden all day long and handle like a beast... I'm sold.

Same muffler, the one on the shipping cart has a protective shield on it for transport.

Damn I love this bike. I'm not sold on the paint put the package would be a killer base to build a monster Dyna. I would have to modify that swingarm and exhaust to allow for 2up riding though.
