Dyna Rules!


My friend Adhi with his 09 Dyna.
we use a cafe fairing on it,change the front wheel with 21 inch and some minor changes.
but we're gonna chop it and will doing some more fun stuff on this one real soon!

the return of the Super Glide


in 1971, Harley produced this beauty...its called Super glide but many call it a boat tail.

35 years later in 2006, they produced the anniversary of Dyna with the same paint scheme...very nice bike.
I always wanted to build one from the first time I saw it.

with a bot tail off course!
I don't know much about computer graphics mambo jumbo but I remember it was a long night in front of my computer...dreamin someday I will chop an Anniversary Dyna!

Lucky me...she came to my shop..
it was one of the first Rocket motor company project

you see that 35 badge on the oil tank?
yes,its an Anniversary Dyna.

stock engine was enough just added a pro tuner,good brakes and better suspension.

clip on handle bars,stock tank,a bit wider wheels and a boat tail..that's enough.
its a fun machine,easy to handle,quick response and I can stop whenever I want.

my friend took this picture about a month ago...and its the only photo of it that was taken from a real Camera, others just took from my cheap Blackberry.
I don't carry a real camera and take some nice pictures of my built.
I wish I could, but I don't have a nice Camera...
I will buy a nice camera someday,but that means Im gonna need to learn how to use it.
but its been fun lately, some new projects on the work and a lot of things going on.
I will post more of this bike soon I get a real photos.

more pics of the Rocket Dyna

got some emails asking about this Dyna, so here it is:

yes, it is a stock frame.
I only cut the seat section and mount a single shock on the stock swingarm.

I have some Mustang tank laying around my shop.
so I cut one Tank and split it for the gas tank.
and then I cut another one and use it as the tail that also holds the battery and electrical.

since its a Dyna, its got oil pan under the tranny so we got free room under the seat.
Oh ya, I was working on a V rod when I started to mount the girder front end on this Dyna...
So I was just playing around and mount the V rod fairing real close to the tire, and since its a girder...its possible to mount it real close because the fork moves together with the tire.

in this photo you can see that I used two similar tank, I just chopped it differently.
I moved the brakes o the left by using Sprocket brake with stock belt.

I wish I have more photos, but we already did some photo shoot for some magazines so stay tuned!
will post it soon!

Buick

two times, I almost buy a Buick...both are four doors but still nice to chop.
but never happened, both are sold a few years a go.
so every time I thought about Buick, I used to ask God : why?
Finally He gave me an answer:

found this baby just right outside Jakarta.
it is the only Buick Convertible in Indonesia.
Thank you, God!
