Glad you are on here and ready to finish her up. I remember looking at your bike and talking to you about it. Its going to be an awesome scoot once completed.

Hello from Redcar England.
You are building my vision of how a dyna should be. If you were in the uk I would have that swinging arm for my 05 fxdxi which hopefully will be like yours some day.
Keep posting, great thread.

Awesome! This is my kind of build. Can't wait to see how you finish it up. That swingarm is very tempting... I hope those metzelers are just for mock up too.

I think I found the right ones, but we'll know when they get here. These aren't the rear shocks I'm using either, just there for mock-up purposes.










Holy crap...I just sprayed in my shorts looking at that front end.

Subscribed. Can't wait to see this rest of this one.

Here's my master's and the reservoirs that I'm running. Also this is the steering damper I'm using.

I'm thinking of doing something similar. Where did you get the front end?

I got the front end from Howard at Motorcycle Metal, very happy with Howard. Now these guys make a kit as well. - http://krausmotorco.com/

Glad all you guys are following this bike, it's going to take me a while to figure some things out. I'm trying to find what fairing I'm going to run. I don't like the Ness or T-Sport ones. I'm thinking of maybe a Japanese type small fairing.

I hope to have my bars on Tuesday so I can figure out what size risers I'll be using. It won't be very tall as I'm more into the sport bike look. I'll probably also include my mount for my gauges in the risers.

That's it for now, thanks for reading.

There's a new Gauntlet fairing for Dynas.
Something Japanese would be pretty unique though.
