Further up I-75 behind what is now Texoma Medical Center. There was a cool Bar & Grill / Nightclub. I think it was called "Big Slicks". It's gone now. The hospital bought all that property.

titanium wrap on the exhaust—I think the goldish color would flow with the fuel tank
coil over shocks—not a fan of the bagger shocks, I’ve run them on a Dyna and don’t care for them plus the coil overs look more raw.
gold, black or brown grips
s&s teardrop air cleaner
ld loose the fork boots
I’d scrap the rear fender strut covers
Let’s see the other side and front and rear shots. Im thinking you have wide glide trees to accept the 16 incher up front?

Yes I do, and doesn't ask for favors and only makes suggestions. Only wants to grow the HDFORUM were everone can safely and freely enjoy it.

And even get a bonus of being paid 24/7/365 for doing it.

Well, you asked for it, so I'll add this.
Since you have little to no info on your "profile page", I'll make some assumptions, comments and questions, like maybe this is your first Harley.

I'll start by saying you have a cool bike there, it looks good as is.
I appears to be an EVO WideGlide with an FXD, FXDX, or other rear fender, turn signals removed, Bagger air-shocks, LePera seat, Drag pipes, blacked-out engine components, Big Sucker A/C, White hand grips, handlebars, I'm not sure about, they look a little shorter than the 11" mini-apes that came stock on WideGlides, black fork boots, wide rim and 16"fat tire, as opposed to the stock 21" bicycle tire that came stock on WideGlides. Someone spent a lot of time and money to create that bike's look. It could be called a Frankenstein.

How long have you had the bike? Is this your first Harley? First EVO? Do you know the history of this bike? I would suggest you get yourself a factory service manual. Especially if you plan on doing any work on it yourself. Do your research to learn a bit about the peculiarities of the EVO engine and drivetrain.

What do I think, what do you need to do?
Buddy, the possibilities are almost endless. I suggest you Google "Dyna" click on images and you'll find a ton of Dyna pics, to see what is possible, and the different looks that the Dyna platform is capable of. Youtube "Harley Dyna", go to some local bike nights, biker friendly bars, and look at the Dyna's there. In the mean time just ride your bike and enjoy it. Where you are located in Sherman, any direction you ride, there are nice country back roads to ride.

I'll add a pic of my 2000 FXDWG for a comparison to a mostly stock Dyna WideGlide.


Almost all original.

So, you're admitting that you are a paid troll?
