    Here's my 2001 Dyna Super Glide Sport, before and after. I flew over to Adelaide to purchase earleir this year it and rode it back the same day, Andy from AA Custom cycles stripped it down and went about putting it back together with alot of different parts and extras. 

    It has 60,000km on the engine and doesnt skip a beat.

    Alot of the bike's parts have been powdercoated, it's got Westcoast Tbars 14' and cagecrackers, S&S intake, Bassani Roadrage 2-1 exhaust, brand new and original speedo and tacho, all the tins were resprayed. Fork boots, Arlen Ness rear signals and Joker Machine fronts, Daymaker headlight, HD quarter fairing, Badlanderseat, Death Squad from and rear pegs, Kurayaken taillight and plate mount, refurbished and retrimmed the dash panel.

     In my opinion one of the best and most unique looking Dynas around, set up to ride hard and fast. 

    The mags are getting powdercoard and waiting on a set of Progressive Suspension 970 series rear shocks to arrive, will be 13.5 in length so the rear will be nicely lifted.

    Full credit goes to Andy for working his magic and putting it all together perfectly. All I did was have the vision and research and gather the parts I wanted.

    Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions on it and before you make Sons Of Anarchy reference, know your shit and the history of bikes set up like this and why. Cheers.

    I followed its progress on instagram, its come up a treat - what are your plans for the engine & how much of the gauges are blocked by the T's?

    The true track (or sputhe) is a must if you want to ride hard and fast. Especially around corners !

    I mainly fitted the Steering damper because of our crap roads, and because the front end gets a bit light when pushing hard. But not totally needed.

    It's also important to get the suspension dialed in. The front cartridge forks on the FXDX are probably the best ever fitted to a stock HD.

    It looks like your shocks aren't standard and that's a shame. They are also very good.

    I dont have a stock front end as after getting the bike home and the front end taken apart we discovered one the lower fork shafts was snapped clean in two! Looks like it hadnt been screwed correctly in the past by somebody. So I have a run of the mill set of 39mm front forks with Speed Merchant pre-load adjustors.

    Just got some ricor intiminatators and a fork braced instsalled, front end feels much better now and the whole front end and my bars feels a lot stiffer when going into corners.

    Will defintily be going for a Sputhe as my next upgrade and possibly a chain drive conversion.
