2012 Harley-Davidson FXDC Dyna Super Glide Custom Review

Super Glide style kicked up a notch, with lots of chrome and plenty of power.

For riders who want a head start on building their dream custom motorcycle or for those who just want a little more straight from the showroom floor, the Dyna® Super Glide® Custom model may be the perfect bike. This stylish performer’s long, low profile is enhanced by a low-slung, two-up ribbed seat. Steel Laced wheels and the Fat Bob® fuel tank add to the classic look. A mini pull-back handlebar creates a clean look for the front end, which draws attention to the tank-mounted speedometer/ignition console. With a nimble frame, Twin Cam 96™ engine and smooth-shifting 6-Speed Cruise Drive® gearbox, the Dyna® Super Glide® Custom is just plain fun to ride.

PREMIUM PAINT
Up to two times thicker than the competition, custom quality paint comes standard on all Harley-Davidson® motorcycles. Clearcoat layering up to five mils deep. Bigger metal flakes. Unique effects in the sunglo and pearl colors. Skimping simply is not in our vocabulary.
HAND FINISHED FUEL TANK
All Harley-Davidson® fuel tanks are finished by hand—that's what makes them stand out from the competition. Their seamless design and unmatched style are unique among all motorcycles on the road. The tanks are one of the first and last things people notice when they lay their eyes on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle—so we make it worth their time.
PREMIUM CUSTOM STYLING
From wheel to wheel, the Super Glide Custom® is a chromed out feast for the eyes, blazing with high-end finishes as it holds true both to its heritage and its custom designation. Its powertrain highlighted by machined cooling fin tips and chrome rocker covers. Its tank-mounted gauges engulfed in chrome. Its solid stainless steel pullback handlebars, polished fuel tank medallion and iconic battery box cover gleaming with iconic Harely-Davidson attitude. These premium touches make this a one-of-a-kind custom ride—not to mention a smokin' deal.
TWIN CAM 96™ ENGINE HERITAGE
The knowledge of what makes an engine truly move a rider runs deep at The Motor Company, and it was put to good use when we created the Twin Cam 96™ engine. We sweated bullets perfecting every cubic inch, pushing design and technology forward.
And we did it all without compromising one bit of Harley-Davidson's unique styling. Evolved, yet carrying on the legacy of the Flathead, Knucklehead, Panhead, Shovelhead, Evolution® and Twin Cam 88® engines that came before. The performance and durability are a direct result of the untold miles logged on the V-Twin since 1909, and the proud heritage that comes from a century's worth of commitment to life on two wheels.
TWIN CAM 96™ ENGINE INNOVATION
Fire up the Twin Cam 96™ engine and feel the low-end torque unleashed. Thanks to the lightweight piston design, delivery of the added power is more refined than ever. Then put your foot on the shifter and feel how the engine and Six-Speed Cruise Drive® transmission were designed to work together. Six speeds. A strong driveline and strong internal parts. Low routine maintenance. And a low cruising rpm couldn't feel better.
PURE HARLEY-DAVIDSON STYLING
Feast your eyes on the Twin Cam 96™ engine and there's no mistaking its roots. This is authentic Harley-Davidson® style through and through with an attention to detail you won't find from any other motorcycle company. Black powder-coated heads and cylinders are highlighted by machined cooling fin tips and chrome rocker covers. It's a jewel machined out of metal. Pure. Dripping with power.

From the classic edge of the cooling fins to the clean lines of cases and covers—the Twin Cam 96™ engine makes an ironclad statement to holding on to what's right and staying true to what satisfies the rider.
SIX-SPEED CRUISE DRIVE®
You want a ride that rumbles—not begs for mercy—when you lean on it a little. The Six-Speed Cruise Drive® transmission provides smooth, quiet shifting and reduces engine speed on the highway, so you get a better match between engine turnover and road speed. It's a rare ride when a bike responds like this, and a low growl goes a long way when you're opening up the road ahead.
ARTFULLY HIDDEN TECHNOLOGY
Harley-Davidson leverages the latest in technology without compromising style and function. That means we hide electronics. The whole wiring harness is skillfully routed behind the jewels of the bike—the tank, engine and all the other eye-popping features you want to see. It's just another way The Motor Company goes the extra mile to give its bikes that premium, top-of-the-line fit and finish.
INTUITIVE CONTROLS
Hand controls on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle are incredibly intuitive. The turn signals are self-canceling and, based on the speed and angle of the motorcycle, they know how long to stay on. Engaging the controls quickly becomes second nature so you can focus less on turning off your signal and more on basking in the freedom of the ride.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKES (OPTIONAL)
You may be cruising with swagger, but you know safety counts. This sophisticated, factory-installed ABS gives 'stopping power' a double meaning. Its components are tastefully hidden within the wheel hub, so you'll still turn heads with clean, streamlined design. But more importantly, you get certainty in the saddle knowing your bike's going to behave when you need it. Offered as a part of the 'Security Package' (which includes the H-D® Smart Security System).
H-D® SMART SECURITY SYSTEM (OPTIONAL)
The factory-installed next-generation security system features a hands-free fob that automatically arms and disarms the vehicle electronic security functions as you approach and walk away from the bike. Stick the fob on your ignition key ring and let it do all the work. It's this attention to details and security that make Harley-Davidson® motorcycles unique. Offered as a part of the 'Security Package' (which includes Anti-Lock Brakes).
ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
Preload is easily adjusted with a spanner wrench to make your suspension suit you and your riding style. The slammed low rear suspension gives you a more laid-back riding position and style. Low-profile, kicked back for profiling down the boulevard and hugging corners.
TUNED TO BE RIDDEN
Harley-Davidson® motorcycles are different from any other bike out on the road. There's a balance to them. The steering, the maneuverability—it's all in concert. And each Harley-Davidson® model is tuned differently to create a unique riding experience for each individual no matter which bike they swing their leg over. Let's face it, we didn't get to where we are by being like everyone else.
MICHELIN® SCORCHER™ TIRES
New Michelin® Scorcher™ Tires provide the superior performance, sensational grip, impressive durability and excellent handling expected on a race-bred bike. The exclusive deep-cut tread design improves grip and water evacuation capability. Grip performance and durability is also enhanced by the tire's rubber compounds, which use the latest generation of Michelin synthetic polymers. Under the rear rubber, aramid belts are used to stabilize your ride, which helps inspire confidence in handling.
MID-MOUNTED CONTROLS
Let your boots fall where they may, naturally to the mid-mounted controls and rider foot pegs on the Super Glide® Custom model. An easy reach and tight rider triangle is confidence-inspiring for new riders eager to set off on their journey and riders whose legs run slightly shorter than others.
PULLBACK HANDLEBAR
The Super Glide® Custom model comes standard with a stainless steel pullback handlebar that provides a laid-back riding position for comfort and profiling. It's the perfect handlebar for cruising endless country roads or tearing up the boulevard.
SEAT ENGINEERING AND DESIGN
The seat is home for Harley-Davidson® motorcycle riders. They want a seat that has unique style without sacrificing comfort. Because of that, Harley-Davidson invests a lot of time in researching, designing and testing seats so that every bike has just the right saddle.
ENGINE IDLE TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
Our motorcycles are built to be ridden. A lot. So that means that rider comfort is top of mind. Always. With the Engine Idle Temperature Management Strategy (EITMS) feature, the motorcycle automatically cuts fuel and fire from rear cylinder when idling, which helps reduce engine heat felt by rider and passenger. This feature can easily be turned on by your dealer.

Millions of people enjoy riding motorcycles. Not only do riders get to enjoy the fresh air, but they also get to take advantage of great gas mileage and maneuverability. Frustratingly, though, motorcyclists must also deal with roads constructed specifically for cars as well as drivers who are not always attentive to them.

On a motorcycle, you do not have the same amount of physical protection that cars and trucks provide to their drivers. Therefore, motorcycle accidents can be devastating. If you have suffered in a motorcycle accident due to another person’s negligence, you should not let this terrible act go unpunished. To fight back, contact an experienced Baltimore motorcycle accident lawyer from Belsky, Weinberg & Horowitz, LLC at 410-234-0100 today.
Causes of Motorcycle Wrecks

Sadly, in 2006 alone, motorcycle accidents claimed the lives of over 4,700 individuals. In about 75% of these accidents, a passenger car was also involved in the accident. Often, this is because car drivers do not look for motorcycles around them before they change lanes or turn. Other causes of motorcycle accidents include:

• Road defects
• Highway flaws
• Debris in the roadway
• Animals on the road
• Inattentive drivers
• Mechanical malfunctions
• Drunk driving or riding

Of course, some motorcycle accidents can simply be the result of bad luck or misjudgment when driving. However, if your accident is the result of another person’s carelessness, you should talk to a Baltimore motorcycle accident lawyer immediately.
