Default 1998 Dyna Wide Glide - Changing Pipes?


Hey All,

I own a 1998 HD Dyna Wide Glide, and currently have V&H Staggered Pipes.I am considering on changing them to either V&H Big Radius, or to Big Dog shorts. Reason being that since I put 11" shocks and had it lowered, the swing arm now doesn’t look straight. Here are some pictures to show what the bike looks like with the current pipes.

Any suggestions or comments???

Nice looking Glide there.

I wish I had some Big Radius on mine. Maybe one day.

Welcome!
