2008 HARLEY-DAVIDSON FXDWG

RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH FISTS IN THE WIND HASN’T YET, AND NEVER WILL, GO OUT OF STYLE.

You’re looking at a motorcycle born to remind the world of that. Picture yourself in the saddle. The factory ape-hanger handlebar stretches wide, begging to be gripped. Internal wiring keeps the look clean. The wide 49-millimeter front fork straddles a 21-inch chrome, laced steel wheel. Moving back, the look is long and low, as it should be. At the center is the black and chrome V-twin, matched to a 6-Speed Cruise Drive™ transmission. This year we honor one of our favorite with exclusive 105th Anniversary styling.

Braided Brake Lines: Braided stainless steel brake lines enhance both the style and brake feel on all 2008 Dyna models.

Good Ride...Needs a Big 16" Front


This is and always has been a good ride and great looking classic HD. The wide sectioned front end and good suspension make it a good cruiser for all occassions. Unlike it's softail brothers it's ridability is far better while maybe the cleaner look of the softails no side mount shocks make up for it your body will tell you differently in a few hundred miles or so.

The responsiveness of the TC88 is good while it still lacks a bit of jump on the get go, and a new front 16" front tire and fender are nothing your dealer can't resolve to make this a really great ride
