Motorcycle specifications Harley-Davidson1584 DYNA WIDE GLIDE FXDWG 2012 Back from Hill Valley

the Dyna Wide Glide returned in 2010 after a 2-year absence. A little wilder, a little more attractive, this famous chopper-style custom celebrates its return with a beautiful flamming paint job (unfortunately in limited series). Like Marty McFly with the DeLorean, we jump back 30 years to rediscover THE Harley machine that set new aesthetic codes for Milwaukee custom bikes. But stepping back to 2010, it seems that Doc Emmet Brown has seriously adapted the FXDWG to current HD trends. Of course, there's the engine - there's no question of going back to the Showelhead 1340, but rather the big 1584 cm3 Twin Cam 96 mounted on silentblocs. The look is very polished, starting off strong and lively with that big, slim 21-inch 40-spoke front rim. With its long 49 mm forks clamped to wide polished aluminum tees and mounted on a 34° open steering column, the front end seems endless, as on any self-respecting chopper. The battery, barely concealed under the seat, the Tommy Gun dual exhaust, the small headlight and the single brake disc conclude the fierce style of this bike for hardened Boys. The black trend that has been invading Harley bikes for some time now has also been applied to this Dyna. The rims, headlight cladding, sissy bar, mudguards and rear-view mirrors have all gone dark. In short, this Wide Glide is even more tempting than before. Makes you wonder why Harley-Davidson withdrew it from its catalog for a couple of years...
