Special Order a Harley?

I'm considering trading up to a Dyna. Trouble is the model I want has the Grey engine and I want the Black one.
Back a few years ago it was common to order and wait for your new Harley. Can I still order a new HD built to my specs?

I know this is a Sportster Forum. I'll be trading up my Sporty, maybe? Not fully convinced I "need" a bigger bike. I do love my Sporty and I'm a small guy so not sure I want to deal with a bigger, heavier bike.

Thanks,

Ron

I don't know what kind of Dyna you want but the 2010 Dyna Super Glide Custom now has the black and chrome engine like the discontinued Low Rider used to have.

Thanks Jim, I just looked at the HD website. They make it too hard to compair versions of their models. Anyway, is the SuperGlide Custom the one that is lower than the other Dynas? I'm guessing so since they DC'd the Low. Looks like the one I may want.

Looking at the HD web site it shows the 2010 Custom as having an unladen seat height .5" lower than the '09 Low Rider. The new Super Glide Custom is a sharp looking bike.

Oops, I found a "Compare" feature on the 2010 bike section. Hard to find but helpful.
