Dyna Low Rider

I purchased this 2002 Dyna Low-Rider over a year ago. It was stock except some Harley accessories which the previous owner installed on it. During the winter I decided to change some things. I lowered it almost 2 inches and installed Progressive shocks. I didn't like the stock spring/shocks at all. I installed new H-D saddlebags, new 13.5 inch handle bars with braided cables. New chrome dash and chrome instrument housing. The tank emblems (I'm told) are from a 1940’s Harley Davidson. These were purchased new from my local HD Dealer. I painted the bike a GM color which is Riverside Red. GM produced it from 1959 to 1964. I painted it in my back yard. A young man in town painted the ghost-flames on the tank. I didn't want to leave the head light housing black or buy a chrome one so I painted this one the same color as the other tins. It has a new license plate holder with integral turn signals.

I'd like to try building a bobber and am looking for an older bike in order to use the engine and transmission.
