Default another FL'd Dyna...

as none of you will recall, last year i built a dyna 49...
it was a sportster 48 inspired build... like a 48, but "one" more...
i promptly wrecked it at a high rate of speed and after enduring surgery and a lot of rehab,i started tinkering with this one since (about march...)
you'll notice my frankenstein exhaust, and some other details arent well sorted yet, but i rode it for the first time today and i'm quite pleased so far...

Looks very good, like how you moved the shock to the swingarm for that fl look, tells us more about that.

That is COOL!! Even though the paint scheme is somewhat modern theme, the colors say vintage. This will cause a lot of confusion everywhere you go. If you are interested, KC International sells vintage mufflers for $49 to maybe $69. They are made in China but they are light and sound great. I would like to hear some more details from the build.

Well on it's way to a sweet bike! I really like the black wheels, between yours and AFMM3's dad's bike I have a wheel dilemma.
