Default Dyna M8 front suspension?

Hi all, can you please tell me if 2018 street bob lower legs are the same as lower legs of my 2019 low rider? I know there are different part numbers but I'm not sure if it is only black vs clear finish or some other differences. Thanks.

You may have better luck in the Softail Thread, as neither of those bikes are Dyna's.

Look up those lowers and see if the part number is the same: https://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche...artsfinder.htm

No such thing as an M8 Dyna. The bikes you posted are Softails

I am surprised how often this actually comes up. Very odd.

It is odd. Harley owners have always been fairly knowledgeable about the various models and designs built over the years. HD should be aware of this, yet they give a bike with a brand new platform the same name as a recent and very popular Dyna. The two Street Bobs are nothing alike. No wonder people get confused.

Agreed. How many platforms has the Low Rider been on . . . 4 ?

Reusing previous names for things is Harley's MO
