Hello guys! I've been thinking about putting on a Springer front end on my FXDI...anyone else besides me have that idea? Anyone here ever done it? If so, and you have pics, please share!!! Would really like to see how it would look. Thanks in advance!!!

Abdon - Hell YES!!
I've always loved the Springer Front. Not sure how it effects handling and ride. But the look is killer.
Keep us posted.

There is a place in White plains ,MD that has both a Dyna and a Sporty with a springer frontend. I was there on monday. They look Awesome. From what I saw ( And I was taking mental notes) its looks like an easy swap.

Saw one on a Bob on e bay for$15K. Looks VERY cool - but for performance - it's hard to beat that 49mm front end

 

ANyone know if any work to the frame of the Dyna has to be done to accept the Springer front end? I heard that I may have to alter the fork stops?? Also, would it be a straight-forward swap if I use a Harley Springer front end vs an after-market one like Paughco? Thanks !!!

Those are all really cool! The thing that struck me as odd was how this guy seemed to like sticking that Sportster air cleaner on everything BUT the Sportsters.

 

I would have to look at the springer frontend , But I made a few forkstops that are made for the FSXT Front end on a Dyna frame with only minor clearancing. If you can get a close up picture of a springer were the top of the bottom tree it would really help.
