Everyone knows the dyna engine is an 883 front cylinder and a 1200 rear cylinder, they just put the 103 on it to trick idiot trolls. If the black paint and red stripe ever touched each other in a dyna configuration the bike and rider would spontaneously combust. Can't believe your stupid azz hasn't been banned (again) yet.

No, the original Dyna was an existing touring frame mated to a Sportster front end. I have read that it was a creation of Willie G. to swing HD back to what he thought was the proper 'roots' as opposed to the 'junk' Sport Glide that Eric Buell was championing at the time.

Sarcasm combined with lack of knowledge creates a dangerous thread.

To answer the OP, no. No similarities besides two wheels and two cylinders, after that complete different animal.

Are you serious? Little do you know that a Dyna is far more superior to a Sportster ... You don't have to beat the Dyna with your purse to get it going.


P.S.
All the Sportster owners know I'm just busting HIS ***** :>)
