Default New To Me Dyna

Wanted to say hello to all the other Dyna riders out there. I've been hanging in the Sporty section for awhile, but on a recent trip to my local dealer for some parts, I saw a recently taken in on trade Dyna Super Glide 2008. Haggled on the price a bit, and well, I'm here!

Time to take her apart and give her some TLC! Any tips or advise is welcome!

I have a 08 Dyna Glide also. I have made a few mods and add on's.
Tank lift is the one I did myself. If you want one I can make you one.
Check out my pics.

Now the hard part will be deciding which one you want to ride when you want to.

Well, I've been wanting to do some longer in more relative comfort. The Dyna should allow for that. That 6th gear makes a huge difference and the engine is much smoother at highway speeds.

Nice man!

I don't blame ya for keeping the sporty. I sure wish I had my 100th Ann 883 back to park next to my Wide Glide. The dyna is fun but carving a corner on the 883 was a blast!

SEMPER FI ! I remember when I was going to join the Military my old man told me to join the men's department. I figured out why he called it that when my boots hit the footprints lol

My tip would be ride it now and take it apart when there's snow on the ground!

Nice ride, you're gonna enjoy it!
