2005 Harley Davidson Dyna Superglide

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

Build a budget friendly performance Harley that was still daily rideable and able to go on 1000 miles trips still. Reliable and fast.

 

What motivated you to start your project?

I Came from mainly street bikes and wanted a Harley, all my friends said they were slow and have fun trying to keep up. So I built a Harley that could beat and keep up with most street bikes.

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the bike?

Hand built my exhaust and made a few other custom parts like my gas cap and fuel gauge and license plate flip kit.

What are you most proud of?

Not going bankrupt while building it haha. No, I’m proud of the entire thing. I grew up poor and didn’t have much growing up. This bike was a wreck when I got it, can’t evem tell it’s the same bike. I replaced literally every single bolt on the bike. Built it in my shed and basement.

What do other people say about your motorcycle?

I can’t believe that’s the same bike.
