Checking back in for a few minutes.

Dropping the Dyna line is a REALLY bad move for HD IMHO

One of the best handling and most fun to ride bikes Harley ever made was the FXR

This one may handle better. I dont like the look but the engineering may be solid on this one. Waiting for rider reviews.

I will most probably never know first hand my friend. Unless I total one of the 2 I have now I doubt I will ever buy another, and certainly not a new one.

Still it will be interesting to hear the reviews on the new mono shock system.

Wow, can't believe they'd drop the Dyna line either! I know a lot of folks love those bikes. I wonder if the sales suggest that more people are moving to the Softails and Touring or it is a gamble HD is taking on their own.

Beats me Mark. Perhaps they are just trying incorporate some different models together to reduce production numbers.

Guys, Guys.....
The Dyna will be will be back in a year or two, with some changes and reintroduced as a new model.
Marketing 101, that's the way it works :-)
