Harley-Davidson-FXD-Dyna-Super-Glide-2008_1

Like a guitar, three chords, and the truth, the super glide is a bold statement with nothing to get in the way.
Whether you see it as a pure reason to ride or a platform for building your own custom vision, you can’t help but appreciate the way this machine gets you right to the bare essence of what riding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle is all about.

Harley-Davidson-FXD-Dyna-Super-Glide-2008_2

A silver Twin Cam 96 V-Twin engine, rubber-mounted in the rugged Dyna frame. The powerful mass of a 49mm fork topped by a bullet headlamp. A comfortable handlebar and mid-mount foot controls. Plain no-nonsense. Riding the way it was meant to be.
