Not tested
For 2006 all Dyna models ahve been totally revamped, the most notable of which has been to the Twin Cam 88 motor for the inclusion of the new six-speed transmission.
The extra complement of chrome components includes engine covers, headlight cover, and speedo housing. The low-slung seat is new this year. As well as receiving a new frame package throughout the range, the FXDCI now has a new single floating front disc so that more of the chrome laced front wheel is visible - it's all about being seen. The only problem you may have is choosing one of the nine available colour options.
