Default Leaving the "sporty" world and entering the Dyna world

Well, a handshake sealed the deal and in a few days I will be picking up a Dyna lowrider. It is an 05 with 14k miles. Apes, chrome and a "fabricated" sissy bar. (Of which I'm not quite sure of yet.)

Anyhow, I spent most of the day going over Evo vs TC info on the net and I have a good grasp of what the complaints are. A friend of mine is REAL hesitant about me getting a TC, but I'm not going to let it worry me.

Only reason I'm here is to introduce myself and get some other opinions of people that have spent time with the TC Dyna. Lets see if the attachment thingy is working.

91 883 Sporty. I have a great time on it, but it's time to get back on a bit bigger bike. I have the money, but can't justify the expense of a used Street Glide. Wade

Welcome Wade! Just moved from a 1200 custom to a Wide Glide myself. Still have the Sporty (or the wife does), but really love the Dyna. Much more comfortable.

Welcome aboard and Congrats on your new addition. I love my 07 Low Rider and I am sure you will love yours. That kind of sissy bar is called an attitude stick. I almost bought one for my 08 Street Bob, but I never pulled the trigger. Not sure if I would like it or not and I had a few other items that I wanted more.....
