“Fun to ride slow” - that really is the best thing about Harleys. Bikes get faster every year but what you really want is one that is good for going slow. Good on you for understanding that and saying it out loud in this video.
I never figured a big twin could be sooo fun... Just got a 99 wide glide big bore 95", cams, pipes, what a blast, handles great, just the stopping to sort... 60+ bikes later and I am blown away woohoo
I bought a 2003 Dyna as my first bike and I don't regret a second of it. That twin cam 88ci engine has ample power to have fun with, it's crazy nimble for a big bruiser cruiser and, as stated, aftermarket is beyond plentiful. I plan on building mine out for long-haul touring.
The Dyna is an awesome platform for mods , you can get these bikes to handle and cruise , i own two Twin cams , my 2011 FXDB and my 2011 Roadglde FLTRX , both have been awesome. I set up my Dyna club style and love it , i can ride s good distance and have fun in the twisties. Twin cam is a solid motor i know i work on them .
One of the great things about the Dyna is its versality. I have gone through the entire spectrum of canyon carver to long distance, high-speed tourer (and back). I almost gave up on Dyna and move to a bagger (or adventure bike) due to severe wind buffeting that come with windshield. For touring, I use OEM Harley touring windshield mounted with additional rake (more rake the better; require mods to the mounting hardware); and added a fork bag to reduce air coming up from legs.
I won a 2015 FXDB, I set mine up with a Batwing fairing, forward controls, hard bags, Progressive fork spring, air ride shocks on the rear, SE255 cam, and Road Rage exhaust. I love this bike, much lighter and handles much better then my buddies full dresser. Best value for the dollar when you consider the upgrades you can add. 😎
I had a 2005 dyna low rider traded it in for a ultra I have now, wish i had kept it because for one they did not give me shit for trade in and secondly it was more fun to ride and rode great bone stock, I am going to get a 103 dyna low rider next and this time I am keeping the damn thing for good.
Great bike. I've a 2010 here in Scotland I found with 5k miles only 😀 and in showroom condition. Brilliant wee machine . Coming from a RK classic I feel like a bit of a hooligan
I have a 1997 Wideglide and a Heritage Softail Nostalgia 96 model. I can't really say if I have a preference between the two. I love both of them. But the softail is really supposed to have my rother in the saddle. I lost to cancer in 16. Great vidio
I love my wide glide been up and down the east coast with it. I want older can fix it yourself sound great. My friend has a metric with fuel injection has to go to the dealer to get his idle fixed I need a screwdriver.
Im thinking to get a dyna wide glide cuz im tall and i prefer forward controls over other stock dyna mids. But im thinking about to getting 2010+ twin-cam 88ci or 2012+ twin-cam 103ci. Ofc 103 one is more expensive option so what do u think should i get 88 twin-cam or pay extra and get 103ci motor? Is it worth to save up and wait a little longer for that 103ci motor?
"Easy to work on" No no no. Cam chain tensioners, lifters that fail and grenade motor. Inner and outer primary leaks that many times require specialized tools. Dyna death wobble. Crank runout on 30k mile bikes. 3 hole oil change. But the aftermarket is huge and they sound cool
I don't know what you're thinking but that looks like deer country to me a deer comes out you're going to hit him you're going way too fast with no visibility on the side of the road I hit a deer in Wyoming it wasn't good!
@@_willmoto They started their string of multiple engine configurations, none of which are as reliable as the EVO, the engine that was not giving the service departments enough billable hours, so they stopped supporting it.
@@_willmoto I hear the same thing. There is a couple good-year twinscams after the problems are fixed. Then they went on to 28 different variants of an engine. Parts are becoming obsolete due to their shakedown.
@@_willmoto I've owned 1 Harley, and it convinced me to never own another one. I know a lot of people who own Harley's and they spend a lot more time either "fixing" their bikes or having it at the "dealership" to have it fixed, and it always COSTS A LOT of money! I prefer "riding" my bike, not "wishing I could ride it!" My son owns an Electra Glide and he says that the "H.D." stands for "Hundred Dollars" because everything costs at least $100 or more.

Thank you I appreciate your input!
I love my Dyna.
My old lady even wears a shirt that reads “My Boyfriend is a Dyna Bro” to poke fun at me.
😂 nothing wrong with being a Dyna bro

It's not how fast you go, but how well you go fast.

Had mine since 2007 love it an awesome ride 🇬🇧

Dyna Superglide was one of the best Harley's I have ever owned before I was disabled 3 1/2 years ago.
They are a great bike!

Nice I actually bought mine with 5k miles on it as well lol thanks for sharing about yours. I enjoying hearing about other people’s bikes
Hahaha the older women comment had me 😂.

I got my 1st HD recently. An 07 StreetBob with not much StreetBob left about it. 120R engine means it is anything BUT laid back! 135HP/139TQ.
That sounds awesome!
@@_willmoto
It is closer to a dragbike than a cruiser, to be honest. Kind of brutal.
@@upsidedowndog1256 😂 I believe it
Those are big numbers you got there UDD1256. Enjoy every moment you're on the bike.

@_willmoto thank you for honest response. Is your street bob 88ci or 96ci?

With a service manual and UA-cam you can do anything lol
Cam chain tensioner were changed in late 06 early 07 so not an issue
