EXACTLY.

You're right, most every new part comes out for the softail first. Maybe later it trickles over to the Dyna line. It's sort of like small block V8's. Everything comes out first for the chevy, then ford, then mopar.
The softail was designed for the custom no shock look. Designed for the customizer, not the rider. Dynas are just the opposite. Built for the rider, not the customizer. It's a simple matter of marketing.
In the Harley world, I think the softail needs the most help.

I agree, there is less of a range at the moment. That may change though, becuase with the cool stoff on the 06's (6 speed box, 49" forks etc. they've been selling a few of them, so demand for after market parts is up too. Hopefully demand will force an increase in supply.

I have not had any trouble finding anything for a dyna. Wide Tire kit, wide glide convertion triple trees, any bolt on or performance goods, front fender, had to customize a rear fender, but there was something available to work with doing it, where you been looking?
