I have an '02 FXD with sidecar and would like more rake for easier handling. I have always loved the look of the springer front ends! Of course a front fender is needed to stay dry and mud-free and front brakes are important with the extra weight of the hack but I live on a pension.

Is/are there economic alternatives for a springer?

Anybody have pictures of a springer on a Dyna?

 

Different vintage then yours but heres one I spotted on my local CL

To me Dyna's with springers sometimes look cool, and sometimes look weird. The one fskitch linked to looks really cool. Nicely proportioned.

Forum member bikerlaw had a thread a few years back about putting a springer on a Dyna.

I installed both a DNA Springer as well as a PAUGHCO on my Low Rider. The DNA's work, but are crap compared to the more expensive PAUGHCO. I would never trust a DNA with the added weight of a hack.
Reindeers link has more of my info.

 

Thanks for the warning about DNA forks!
