Precisely Joe.
They're all SuperGlides, customized by the factory in massive quantities.
In the sixties we were takin the big bikes and putting the Sporty front forks on em.
The factory caught on to the trend and the Dynas were born.
Here's my 06 FXDa couple weeks ago.
It's been tShirt weather here for 5-6 weeks now.

Built the rear fender using three different fenders.
It's a double duckbill now, or a duckbill with a harelip.
And the only one I've ever seen with the sissybar
coming thru the fender invisibly mounted underneath.
Fender and tank inspired by a showbike a friend built in the sixties.
Pictured below as it survives today ready for restoration.
I have all of the stock shiny black parts set aside,
and my machine can go back to stock in half a day.
This is why I picked the SuperGlide.
Same as you are doing with your machine.
We build em to our specs.
You've done a great job with yours.
On the issue of paint, I'm thinking I'll squirt a satin or matte silver
with a moderate amount of pinstriping.

RE: Superglides rule!
No arguement here. One of the reasons I bought my Super Glide was the affordability. I have spent money making it look the way I want but unlike yourself I'm not trying to make her a WG. I'm just trying to make her mine. [sm=shades.gif]
