Soa?? Who???
I had a guy ask me the other day why I haven't put t-bars and a fairing on my Street Bob. He then told me said that's the only way to make my Dyna look cool. He then proceeded to tell me that Sons Of Anarchy bikes are totally original and that he hadn't seen any bikes like them before he watched the show. I kinda laughed and explained to him that I like my SB just the way it is and tried to tell him that t-bars and fairings have been a main stay on Dynas long before SOA was even on TV. I tried show him some old mags that my old man gave me from back in the seventies with bikes that had tall drag bars, z-bars and tall risers. I then showed him pics of FXR's that had fairings on them 15 yrs ago. He was shocked to learn that this isn't new and that the FX network didn't come up with the idea!!! I told him that yes, bikes look great that way, but Harley riders and club guys alike have been riding Dynas this way for years and that the idea for the bikes on the show came from real riders and from club guys who have had there bikes setup this way to get the bike to feel and ride the way they like.
I love that look, it just makes me laugh when guys think that a TV show is the main reason behind that style of bike. I told him to check out the forum and see how many guys on here have been sporting that look before the show ever came out. Dyna riders ride them because they handle like a dream, are mostly reasonably priced and are in my opinion the best platform Harley has for customizing!!! Sorry so long just venting a little...

I bet that "conversation" never took place. You just want everyone on here to know you like your bike the way it is, and you don't like the television show Sons of anarchy. Because your the real deal and that's just a show, am I right.
