Hey guys i have been hanging out over in the dyna forum because i actually have a 2010 FXD but since i purchased it new i have actually been transforming it into a bagger(yeah i know i should have bought a touring bike!!!) as you can see from the pics. So my question is-should i keep posting in the dyna section or move over here???? I have learned alot from one of my crew that i ride with he has a 2008 Ultra Classic and has been riding since the 70's. Anyway give me your thoughts-good, bad or the ugly thats why i love this forum. Peace-be safe and ride HARD!!!

I gotta say you have done a good job of trying to transform your bike. You have probably gained more satisfaction from what you have accomplished than had you simply purchased one of our touring bikes.
I don't think anyone minds or really cares where you post. Based on what I see, it could fit in either forum.
Don't know if you have ever had a chance to ride one of your bud's Ultras, but if you can take a spin on one (2008 or later) that would give you a good feel for the difference .
..HOLY CRAP!...that's amazing work there!..you might be on to something...you know,,I've had a lot of different Harleys in my almost 40 years of riding, but I've never owned a Dyna..never even ridden one...always wondered how the feel....I wonder even more now what a Dyna Tourer would feel like...you could call it a "Sport Tourer" like the old FXRT...you are CERTAINLY welcome here after creating that.....
damm, and i thought this was the Triumph Rocket III section. nah, man, you sure got a touring bike there. You did a great job with it. I had an 02 fxdl, dyna low rider and actually traded it off towards my streetglide, but i really like what you did with your dyna. You sure have something unique, and it's gotta handle great too. yeah, you sure do belong here, congrats on the new FXDT.
Thanks guys for all the comments that make me feel proud for what i have put together. I have been calling her "Baggerglide" keep the comments coming good bad or ugly!!!
You can post in either, but please don't abandon the dyna section, some could really prosper from seeing what you have done.
Great job, looks like it was originally built that way
