The Wide Glide has been resurrected for another run in 2010. Last seen as a special 105th Anniversary model in 2008, the latest addition to the Dyna family has lowered front and rear suspension that drops the seat height to 25.5 inches. Team that with its signature wide front end, a black-wire sissy bar on the back sitting on a chopped rear fender and you've got a brand new motorcycle with ageless, throw-back styling. Harley-Davidson has recently launched the 2010 model range featuring nine brand new models. This is the effect of the company now investing in the brand, despite poor sales. The expected result is to conquer the new generation and so bring a new wave of Harley buyers.
The new models address to all kinds of riders and benefit of Harley’s new plating process called "Midnight Pearl" and used to add a nice detail to components such as the headlight cover, timer and derby covers, fender strut covers found on the CVO Fat Bob.
Its 21-inch tall front wheel sits out at 34-degrees on a 49mm front fork with extra space between the fork and frame created by wide polished aluminum triple clamps. Even the fuel tank has been tilted up .75-inch to give it more chopper flair. Internal wiring and drag-style handlebars sitting on four-inch-high black risers keep the front end clean.
The back end features the chopped rear fender that sits above new Michelin Scorcher tires. The large, central tail lamp has been abandoned for dual red LED rear stop/turn/tail lights. As a result of bobbing the fender, the license plate mount has been moved to the left side of the chassis.
