Harley-Davidson introduced the FXD Dyna Super Glide in 1995 as a bike that handled like a Sportster but with the power and comfort of a big cruiser. These bikes were incredibly versatile, as they were fun to ride on surface streets yet were comfortable for long-distance cruising. To make them even better for highway cruising, Harley also introduced the Dyna Convertible, which is exactly what we have here. The Convertible added saddlebags and a removable windshield so you could easily convert it from a street cruiser to a touring bike. This example has covered about 5,400 miles since new and is in fantastic condition, so if you’d love to be its next owner, be sure to cast your bids right here on Barn Finds!

While it’s no lightweight superbike, it’s also not the massive cruiser often associated with Harley. These bikes are known for their fun handling and surprising agility. Its Evolution V-Twin offers plenty of grunt and is paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. To give it a little more power and change up the exhaust note, the seller installed a Screaming Eagle Exhaust, but the original system is included with the bike.

Since the bike is located in Nova Scotia, Canada, the speedometer is in kilometers per hour and currently shows a little over 8,700 kilometers, or about 5,400 miles. Getting the bike into the US shouldn’t be a huge deal, but it is definitely something you will want to look into. The seller has a clean title and additional documentation verifying the mileage.

Besides the exhaust system, the seller also recently installed new Harley-Davidson Dunlop Tires and a Corbin Seat (the original is also included). It’s said to run as it should and is ready to ride. Based on the photos, it looks to be in excellent cosmetic condition as well. The 1340 cc Evolution V-Twin offered up about 60 horsepower and nearly 80 foot-pounds of torque when it was new and is said to have been well maintained.

If you are looking for a bike you can just about do it all, a Dyna Convertible is a great option. Reviews when new were positive, with riders praising its fun handling and versatility. The biggest complaints were that the windshield height was not optimal for every rider and that the saddlebags would sometimes come loose; both issues can be addressed if needed. Overall, this looks like a fantastic bike!
