Owning my 2003 Dyna Super Glide has been one of those rare joys in life that you just can’t put a price on. It’s not just a motorcycle—it’s part of my daily rhythm, my stress relief, and my freedom rolled up in chrome and steel. The Twin Cam 88 is the heart and soul of this bike. The way it growls when you roll the throttle is pure therapy. It doesn’t matter if I’m cruising down the highway or weaving through back roads—the bike feels planted and alive. It’s got plenty of torque, but it’s not trying to throw me off; it just pulls steady and smooth, like it’s reminding me who’s really in charge of the ride: me and the road. What keeps me hooked is the simplicity. No fairings, no distractions, just me and the machine. I like that I feel every bit of the ride—it’s raw and real. The mid-controls keep me in a comfortable stance, and the Dyna frame makes the bike feel solid without being clumsy. It’s nimble enough to handle the city, but on the open road, it stretches its legs and feels like it could go forever. This bike has been rock-solid. Routine maintenance, a little care, and it just runs. And unlike a lot of newer bikes, this one still has that mechanical, visceral feel—when you ride it, you know you’re on a Harley. On top of that, being a 2003, it’s got the 100th anniversary badging, which adds a little extra pride every time I park it and walk away. There’s no way to explain it to someone who hasn’t lived it. The nods from other riders at a stoplight, the conversations it sparks at the gas station, the way it turns even the most mundane errand into a ride worth remembering. It doesn’t matter how long I’ve owned it—every time I fire it up, I get that same grin I had the very first day. My 2003 Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide is more than just a motorcycle—it’s a piece of history, a faithful companion, and a reminder that sometimes the best things in life are simple, loud, and built to last.

Highlight of owning this MC was our trip on RT 66 from St Louis, MO to Santa Monica, CA. Rode the bike one way and shipped back. Next highlight was trip to Sturgis, did not ride but trailered the bike. Loved riding in the GA and NC mountains and attending most of the bike weeks throughout the SE. All service was performed by HD dealers and have receipts for all work. Good thing about Harley Davidson dealers is you get priority for service while traveling. Installed cruise control for the RT 66 trip and also attachment for heated clothing and gloves. this all stays with the bike. Installed some chrome on bike. Riding with groups is safer and desirable. Most of my riding buddies have retired and no longer ride, thus the reason for selling the bike. Show less

BUYER BEWARE! I want to report that this dealer advertises FALSE prices by consealing the HIDDEN FEES that they will add later after they try to hook you. They have lieing sales people who either dont know simple mate or just lie. As a Harley owner feel as though I should report them to Harley. Show less

I purchased this motorcycle in 2005. It had 5,050 miles on it at the time. I've put 78K miles on it including 3 cross country trips. Having been an aircraft mechanic I'm very disciplined about doing all the required maintenance consequently I have never had a breakdown with this bike. It's been totally reliable and even at 83K it still starts and runs perfectly. The quality of the factory build was excellent but I did find the dealership workmanship on some of the accessories subpar. The initial performance was also subpar. In 5th gear at highway speeds twisting the throttle did little or nothing. A stage one upgrade resolved that issue. For touring the factory seat was adequate but replacing it with and oversize seat with gel pads and a driver back rest made a long day's ride more enjoyable. I love the mustache engine guards. They provide an addition place to rest your foot when riding and the factory cruise control makes for a steady laid back ride. Would I recommend this motorcycle? YES! If your enjoy touring this is one reliable and comfortable long haul bike. I rode it from Washington State to The Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia and on the way back drove the entire Blue Ridge Parkway. Nothing better than those backroads! Show less

My experience with this bike is i have never riden a bike before. I took the class but learned everything on this bike. Its too big for me to handle i need something smaller. It runs awesome very powerful bike for my first. Show less

I am the second owner of the bike. I purchased the bike about a year ago with roughly 2,500 miles on it. Immediately took the bike to New River Harley Davidson to do a full inspection, maintenance, change all fluids, and replace the rear tire with oem tire. The bike also has aftermarket Vance and Hines Exhaust. Bike does has 10,834 miles on it currently and is scheduled for a 10k mile service at the Harley Dealership next month. The bike is in immaculate condition and selling is the absolute last thing I won't to do. My family is growing and that it the only reason. I do have both keys to the bike, the original owners manual, and the original owners service guide. I do still have the embroidered 100th anniversary passenger seat as well as the badged 100th anniversary windshield. Show less

It's powerful, that's for sure! You'll pass everything else on the road! Except the gas station. It has a 4.8 gallon gas tank. Which, in my opinion is too small. A 5 gal. tank would be better as gas consumption is high. But, what do you expect with a 1450cc motor! Chrome everywhere. Which is time consuming. But looks great when you get it shined up. An all around great bike. With ONE exception. It needs forward control's. It would be SO much more comfortable on longer rides. Other than that, you can't beat it! It'll do what you want every time! Mine has NEVER left me stranded after 4 year's of hard riding. Like anything else, you have to preform your maintenance every time! If you treat this dog well. You'll have a friend you can count on every time! It'll never let you down! Show less
