Not with the shocks, but with the mega Supertrapp muffler. The bags I have are BossBags, I plan to sell them. I purchased a RoadGlide a few months ago, so don't really need bags on the Dyna anymore.

Greg Looks great..Enjoy riding it till the wheels fall off!
ALWAYS check ya tire pressure.I do
I have the same rear ohlins 215's and got the front forks done by traxxion dynamics 20mm cartridge kit that has rebound & compression damping with the new metzeler roadtech z6 tires and a storz damper it being still harley it handles GREAT!! and a full brembo front & rear brake setup caliper n rotors with a radial front brake master it stops on the dime.
Now i just have to get my *** to drop it off @ rosas cycle for a hot 107 kit..

Havoc, sounds really nice. I am curious re: the damper. What year/model do you have? I had a damper on my track bike because it would shimmy out of some turns, but haven't yet noticed any issues of that sort with my FXD.
I am frustrated on the brake issue, with a 07 FXD there is no way to add dual discs without changing wheels. I have real issues with spoked wheels due to what happens when they get a puncture, so am stuck with the cast wheels. I am thinking of a 6 piston PM caliper...perhaps a cast iron rotor.

Ahhh, relief.... Harley guys actually talking about handling improvement mods on a Harley. Another bright spot in the day. Have raised mine by a paltry 1/2 inch with the 440's, need another inch. Moved the front forks flush in the clamps, good for a bout a quarter inch. Gonna order probably works springs and maybe an inch spacer on top of them.
Modding the pegs while riding, so there's 1 inch more clearance.
