Added Samson fishtails, Kinetic Structures front motor mount and new tires (front tire had '08 date code yikes!). Set of hard bags are at the paint shop.

Thank you.

The badges are early ​​​60's replicas I believe. Sold by HD, here's the link: https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...te/p/61776-61T

Thanks. It is very different from what I am used to.... BUT, I havent ridden the Dyna since I go it.... just spending time with the RK...

Anyway, as far as the 2into1... That is pretty much all I run. I have the D&D on the Dyna now, before I built the motor, I was running a ProPipe
My FXR had a D&D(off of a Texas Chop), and an E series before that
Etc...
From back when I had Buells... just a better pipe design.
I was going to run the FM Headpipe, but, by the time I wouldve spent the money on slip-ons, headpipe, etc... I was pretty much at what that Jackpot cost. I normally run D&D, and was happy with my ProPipe. BUT, there is a severe backlog, AND I wanted to try something a little different for a change. Sound is subjective. Im getting some miles on it before I decide on a baffle change or not.

Ghost pipe is personal preference. Im good with the solo.... doesnt look out of place. With stretched bags, THAT is different.

So on Thursday my bike finally returned from it's 4400 mile round-trip journey to Fuel Moto for the 107 upgrade. At the same time, the CVO style bags from AdvanBlack arrived. Paint quality is great, however the color match is a different story. Maybe Red Hot Sunglo is a tough color, I don't really know that much about paint matching. However, I am going to give Advan a second shot at making them match, it's just too far off. My new 2009 Street Glide fender matches my bike perfectly, but not the bags or fender extension.

I'm moving forward with the rear fender swap, I bought a donor fender from an Ultra for the bits and pieces and have new bullet style turn signals inbound from Surdyke.
