    I bought a 1993 FXLR anniversary model No. 51 of 800. Great story on this bike. It was around $13,000. I sold it to a friend in 2003. He just passed away July 2023 and I got the bike back after 20 years later. Crazy to be back on it at 70 years old.

    We, ( wife and I) own 3 FXRs, hers is a custom 1982 ( first year) with a warmed over shovelhead engine. It’s a real surprise to those that expect an old shovel to run like an old shovel. We did a LOT of upgrades to the motor and installed a later model trans. The motor is around 86” now running and EVO valve train and BDL belt drive and clutch. It’s quick, nimble and smooth. We also have an 87 FXRS-SP with a 96” S&S motor, that motor makes a world of difference in performance. At around 100HP it will get your attention, and again , surprises the hell out of a lot of new bike guys with a LOT more money invested. With Dave Mackie head work and cam and a BUB pipe and Bandit clutch, it puts the power to the ground but still rides smooth all day long. The last is a Pro street configuration that was popular in the 90s. It was more of a resurrection for fun than anything else. The frames are totally different and lend well to custom work. It doesn’t handle like a stocker, but with an107” S&S motor it’s a hoot to ride and keeps up with most anything on the highway today. Cornering is more akin to any other custom type bike with less ground clearance than a normal FXR. It’s more like a cross between an FXR and a Softail. Still a real hoot to ride though. With the die-off of the fat tire “ choppers” those engines and drive trains can be found pretty cheap with low miles. Making for some great custom stuff after a little retuning. Those 90s FXRs need very little to bring them into modern performance and braking and are well worth the effort. I do admit the FXDX and street bones were some pretty damn fine Dynas though. Updating the cam drive paid big dividends on them. Still, I’ll stick with the EVOS and FXRS …

    The MSRP on the 93 FXRS was $11,800. That was a decent chunk of money back then. Hope this helps. BTW I'm an EVO fan, better engines with all bearings and no issues with crank run out, cam plates or the cam chain tensioners like on the twin cam.

    Great vlog! I've never had a Dyna so your commentary was enlightening. I love my 94 FXR Super Glide: is my first bike bought in 2004 (didn't know much about Harleys. Just wanted an entry level bike bigger than a Sportster to tour). Added FXRT engine guard, FXRT trunk, and saddlebags from Buckle & Belts in Yucaipa when I lived in Riverside. Changed out the handlebars from original buck horns and replaced seat with Mustang two-up one piece. 86K on frame and tranny; 14K on H-D long-block stock 80" rebuild. Very different feel compared to my 07 FLTR with 196K original drivetrain miles and 14 FLSTC with 26K original drivetrain miles. Love what you guys do! Tacos!!

    You take that evo and freshen it up with a good cam and head work and it’ll walk that twin cam. And those that’ll say it’s “modified” are correct however it’s still less CI than the twin cam. Honestly chain conversion, engine refresh, suspension upgrade, and brake upgrade it’ll be a no brainer. I’ve owned quite a few bikes and none of them even come close to the fxr I own. It’s definitely my forever bike.

    The engine also had to be pre assembled before installing. Couldn’t install the heads and rocker boxes while bottom end was in the frame. It came down to being a cheaper build for Harley switching to the dyna platform. And let’s not forget, when the fxr was being built and sold it was their furthest thing from popular. All the hell yeh brothers said it looked to much like a “jap bike” that’s why a lot of the bikes you’d find from that era, guys were putting wide glide or touring front ends on them, chopping and raking the frames, anything they could do to make them look like a “Harley”. The look is what everyone craved. If they had just ridden the bike like it was intended to be ridden they would’ve realized all their cosmetic “upgrades” were destroying the best Harley ever built.

    Great video, one thing I noticed is the dyna has a chain whereas the fxr has the belt. Even assuming the ratios are the same with the chain the power feels more direct. Might have something to do with the delivery. As an FXR owner it is a labor of love to own one which is why most people go through them 100%. Killer video either bike is a winner in my book

    I graduated HS in 1997 and just old enough to remember FXRs being fairly new. I think my buddy grab a FXR Lowrider for ~$12k in Temple, Texas. They were pretty awesome bikes back then. I didn’t get my own Harley until 2002 I picked up an FXDL in Annapolis for $15.6k. That was a chunk of change for E-4 in the Navy. I still have that bike. (Took it from an 88ci to a 95ci gear drive in 2008) Yeah I’ve gotten the Dyna wobble but yeah keeping up on your mounts and fork brace kind of ended that. I definitely want to pick up an Early 90s FXR Lowrider though. Nice Vid guys 🤙🏽

    I myself own both, a 2004 Dyna and the very last year 2000 FXR4, my Dyna is efi not carb so I can’t compare it with my carb FXR. However the late model FXR has the same dual piston brakes found on the Dyna as well as the same 39mm forks. The Dyna is definitely quicker but the FXR has a more planted feeling , by far the frame makes all the difference in the world . I think a better comparison would be your 2001 Dyna and my 2000 FXR4, perhaps we can make that happen sometime. If I could only have one, hands down the FXR4.

    I owned an '03 FXD that I converted to a dual disc front end with works springs and works 13.5" shocks( basically turned it to an fxdx) it definitely was a more nimble aggressive handling bike compared to my '14 fxdl. I also owned an '09 road king and in my personal opinion it out handled both my dynas and you say more in the bike than on it like you do with the dynas. I've ridden my dad's 1985 FXRS with single disc 35mm narrow glide and it felt like my road king just with way worse braking lol. Don't get me wrong dynas are great bikes but you gotta do a lot to make them handle like the FXR or road king (that has been put on a little bit of a diet

    I had a '95 Evo FXDL, now have a '99 TC88 FXDL. Wouldn't go back. EBC HH front pads make twin disc work with one finger mostly. EBC FA200HH don't work in the rear but they are still selling them. Harley pads for 91-99 have no bite, sure the discs don't wear out but that's no good if it doesn't stop. Stock cams in the 88 are tame, no issues with the spring tensioners here but I change the oil and check the shoes as recommended. Wheel bearings need to be in spec for the roller type and need to warm up to handle well.

    One thing you could've added was power potential. Not likely that either would stay stock long. For big power on Evo you need to save up 4k for ultima swap. Twin cam can do 97 inch big bore kit for half the money. Kinda like to see a 3 way comparison with a 1200 roadster. Or even a $5 Sportster with few grand in upgrades. Suspension and 1250 kit. Just for sheets and giggles

  • @mikesutterfield5901
    @mikesutterfield5901Ай бұрын

    The FXR frame required the engine to be assembled in the frame which was costly since the engines weren't made in the same factory as the bikes were assembled. That's why is was "costly" and eventually discontinued. It is a superior handling frame.

    Both bikes can be purposely build for any type of riding. A Mild street commuter to a go fast hot rod. FXR’s handle the best. No argument there. But to take your FXR and make it reliable. Take lots of money and lots of very good parts. Technology has definitely changed a lot for Harley’s. Not just electronics, but suspension , brakes, wheel size, etc… considering what we are doing now to our bikes. If you fitted both bikes with high end suspension, bigger brakes, bigger motors, who would come out on top? The legend continues…..🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽.

Bike is like a heavier sport bike now. Absolutely rips, and goes wherever you point it. One of the best handling bikes I’ve ever ridden( not just because it’s mine)

    The stock TC in the FXDX is nearly a square engine whereas the Evo has an extra .5" stroke with a smaller bore. That should influence what you feel, and it seems to come out a bit in your talk on comparing the rides.
