Sorry guys, I felt like at least one of us had to chime in - WIDE GLIDE
ACTUALLY....The Wide Glide is my favorite, but since he was asking between the Low Rider or a Superglide, I went with that. I prefer a raked front end.....just a personal preference, and that's just becasue I like the looks better! I bought my Susie, becasue the dealer basically threw it at me at such a deal, that I went with the best move at the moment, TAKE IT! No Worries, Superglides can be raked, and mine will be.......Along with my custom paint.

Get the one that feels the best when you ride it. You don't see much of the bike from the seat, so it doesn't matter that much how it looks if it feels right and you're always riding. I feel really sorry for these guys who buy on looks first, then sit and admire their bikes and only ride maybe 200 miles a year because they don't feel right.

Sammi,

Great seat and back rest you've got there. Where did you get them? Part numbers?

Thanks!

The seat is a Sundowner Deep Bucket. Part# 51540-06.

Very comfortable for rider and passenger. Neither my wife nor I could take the stock seat for any amount of time on the bike.

Ordered it through Zanottis for $215 plus shipping.

I'm not sure of the backrest and pad.Ordered them when I ordered the bike. I believe it's a medium chrome backrest with pad. No-detachable but comes in a detachable version. My wife says it's comfortable.

The Sundowner is nice. I have one for when the little lady rides with me.

Here is what the bike looks like when dressed for the wifey to go...

Hey all. I am getting closer to purchasing my first harley. So far the dyna low rider is by far my choice at this point. However, I was comparing the specs on the dyna super glide vs low rider and did not see much of a difference. Although the price difference is over 3k. Can you please explain what the differences are with the bikes. Anything would be appreciated.

thanks

Get the Low Rider.

I like the rack behind the back rest. Is your back rest quick release detachable?

Nice setup.

Yep. The only thing that requires a tool is the seat. One screw and it's off and the bike is back to what you see belowMy 2" tank lift came in today and is suppose to rain tomorrow. Guess what I'll be doing...
