With its sleek mini “ape-hanger” handlebars, a raked front fork, and relaxed foot-forward riding position, the Wide Glide motorcycle evokes images of the very first choppers of the 1960s. Its performance, however, is pure 21st Century, with a torquey 1584 cc Twin Cam 96™ engine, smooth-shifting 6-Speed Cruise DriveTM transmission, Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) and fat rear tire (160 millimeter) and front forks (49 millimeter) just for good measure. Perfect.

The 2008 Dyna® Wide Glide model is available in serialized, limited-edition 105TH Anniversary styling, featuring special Anniversary Copper and Vivid Black paint, a tank cloisonné with copper Bar & Shield logo , a copper vinyl insert on the seat and pillion and more.

Of course, its radical looks are what will make both riders and gawkers sit up and really take notice. An all-new satin stainless powder-coated color scheme on the tapered five-spoke wheels, bullet headlamp, triple clamp, custom finned "horseshoe" oil tank and elsewhere. Aggressively stretched front fork. Custom stretched gas tank with machined 3-D tank medallion. New shorty dual mufflers, with a sleek new bend. A big, beefy 240 millimeter rear tire. All-new LED stop/turn /tail lights that pack all the rear light functions into the turn signals, leaving only the license plate centered on the rear fender.
