This Dyna-era custom cruiser first appeared for the 2005 model year as Harley-Davidson’s more chrome-laden, dressier take on the Super Glide formula. It sat within the Dyna family, using the brand’s rubber-mounted big-twin chassis and the factory-custom styling approach that set Dyna models apart from the more stripped-back base Super Glide. Over its run, it was positioned as a boulevard-friendly middleweight Big Twin with a visibly personalized look straight from the factory, rather than a blank canvas for aftermarket customization.
The model continued through the 2000s and early 2010s, appearing in Harley-Davidson model-code listings for multiple Dyna model years and remaining part of the lineup through the 2014 model year. In Harley-Davidson history, it belongs to the broader Dyna story that helped define the brand’s more modern cruiser era before the entire Dyna line was retired in favor of the redesigned Softail chassis for 2018. This model is especially remembered as one of the more traditional, chrome-forward Dyna variants, combining the family’s classic stance with a fuller custom treatment.
