Good looking bike. You can see why so many people tossed the Ham Can air cleaner cover for an S&S...

The previous or older style Dyna Wide Glide and the Heritage Softail are the 2 best looking Harley Davidson bikes ever in my book.
I have my dream bike now Electra Glide...

My younger brother's '80 FXWG. Great bike!
Notice it's not fxDwg. They weren't Dynas.

A friend of mine has a 83 fxwg in his garage. Blue and all original. Really nice scoot. Think it was the last of them if I'm not mistaken.
