Dwight,

If I were to keep my upcoming "Trip Americana" an "All American" experience and go for a HD, as we have previously discussed, it was actually the Dyna Wide Glide I was considering using as I like the idea of a cruiser/tourer.




Bedouin,

Correct me if I'm wrong here guys, but the SuperGlide is basically a Dyna but with the more narrow forks and wider 18 or 19inch wider front wheel/tire as compared to the WideGlide which has the wider forks holding the taller and narrower 21 inch wheel/tires.

I would think the SuperG's wider rubber on the front would make it handle better around the curves than the 21 incher on the WideG's would, which I also suppose would put more weight to the rear wheel and thus make the WideGlide not quite as good a handler as the SuperGlide. And I'm not sure, but I also think the WideGlide's forks are kicked out a little bit more too(more rake), making the bike longer and the steering a bit slower.

But as I said, they essentially are the same bike, with the rubber-mounted Big Twin motor sitting in essentially the same frame.

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
