Default Sport guy goin Dyna. Which model?

What's up Dyna riders! First off let me just say that if this topic has been discussed already, please let me know and if you could shoot me a link that'd be awesome.

Anyway, I'm on a 883 sportster right now and I'm gonna trade up for a Dyna and most likely the Low Rider S. I'm wondering if any of you have some thoughts on the pros and cons of this bike that maybe I hadn't thought of. So just looking for insight! Anyone have an opinion about this bike they wanna share please do! Iv done my research and done some test rides but maybe you guys will say something I haven't thought of since Iv never actually owned a
Thanks!

I went from 48 to LRS, Should have done it in 2016 when they came out! Unreal bike. The weight difference is negligible. They turn stop and go like you wouldn't believe when compared to a sporty.

Default you askin opinions?

The Low rider is cool, but the WG is the coolest. The 110 motor could be the deal breaker, but you can get the power plant up to 110 on a WG too.

you asked for opinions and mine is "I love the looks of a WG".

Only you can decide what is right for you.

I like how the Wide Glide looks too but I am worried about the handling with that wider stance. I live in SF and even to get to a highway theres a lot of twists and turns

I've owned a 1200 XLN, and now I own an LRS. The LRS is more nimble than the Sportster. The 110ci is unbelievable. I mentioned it earlier in another thread, I put forwards on it and they changed the dynamics of the feel it had with the mids. I changed back to mids and now I'm happy again! Did you test ride the LRS? This is hands down the best driving Harley I've owned/ridden...between Sportster, Wide Glide, and RGS.
