Very nice except for that cowl/fairing thing. They have no business on a dyna. But hey, that's just me....

Looks mean! I'm biased though because I like that style of Dyna's and my old one was set up similar. It's a popular and functional set up on the West coast esp. in California.

Looks like the shop did a decent job. As long as you're happy what else matters.

Hey there ....ya not going to do either of the suggestions to each their own. As for have I run it up...not yet I need to break her in properly still have a few hundred KM to put on her....Then that black lady killer will be unleashed and everybody in my mirrors! Thanks for the comments everyone. I knew when I added the fairing it would not be popular with some....That is ok though I like it.

Who is this Jax guy?
