Default new guy from Springfield, il
Just purchased an 2007 Dyna Low with the new 96 and six speed. It's my first Harley and one heck of a motorcycle. Haven't done a thing to it -
When you roll on the throttle hard it feels like it will rip the pavement out of the street!!! Vary much fun!

One thing - the pipes seem to be angled down a bit - the dealer says it's normal and the way it's suppose to look - others tell
me they they can be adjusted up - has anyone experienced the same?
