2003 Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide (FXDWG) Valuation Report

Date: November 2025

Historical Overview

The 2003 Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna Wide Glide 1450cc marks the Motor Company’s 100th Anniversary year. It combines the rubber mounted Twin Cam 88 engine, forward controls and wide front end with anniversary badging and paint options. In the UK it sits in demand as a usable big-twin cruiser that is still affordable compared with later Twin Cam and Milwaukee-Eight models, with the 100th Anniversary touches adding extra appeal for collectors.

UK Valuation Summary (by condition)

Condition	Estimated Value (GBP)	Example external data (plain text, non-link)
Project / Recommissioning High miles, older import needing work, or bikes without current MOT. May need tyres, brakes and cosmetic attention before regular use.	£4,500 – £6,000	Examples of earlier Twin Cam Dyna projects and non-running imports in the UK advertised in the mid £4,000s to low £5,000s bracket (eBay UK classified and specialist Facebook groups). Comparable 2002 FXD project bikes often listed just under £3,000, with the more desirable Wide Glide typically carrying a premium.
Roadworthy / Presentable Registered in the UK with V5C, running and rideable, average mileage, some age related marks but generally tidy. Light accessories and Stage 1 style upgrades are acceptable.	£6,000 – £8,000	Car and Classic listing for a 2003 FXDWG 100th Anniversary in the UK advertised around the mid £6,000s and now marked sold. UK eBay classified ads for 2003 Dyna Wide Glide custom cruisers typically appear between about £5,500 and £7,000 depending on miles and extras. Classic and Classy Motorcycles have recently advertised a 2003 100th Anniversary FXDWG in the mid £4,000s as a sensibly priced rider, indicating the lower end of the roadworthy spectrum.
Restored / Excellent / Dealer Retail Clean, low or sensible mileage, good history file, anniversary paint and badges present, very tidy cosmetics. Often retailed by specialists with warranty and fresh service.	£8,000 – £10,000+	UK Harley specialists have retailed 100th Anniversary FXDWG models advertised close to £9,000, reflecting top dealer money for sharp examples. US auction evidence (for example, 2003 FXDWG 100th Anniversary big-twin sales at major auction houses) typically shows hammer prices that convert to roughly mid £7,000s for very clean bikes when adjusted for exchange rate and buyer’s premium. Low mileage, lightly modified, UK registered examples with strong provenance can therefore justify asking prices in the upper end of this band.

Notes: Values above reflect the UK market in late 2025. Wide Glides that are freshly imported and not yet registered, or machines with heavy cosmetic or mechanical needs, will sit at the bottom of the relevant band. Anniversary paint schemes, tasteful accessories and proof of regular servicing all strengthen prices.

Value Influencing Factors

Anniversary specification: 100th Anniversary badging, correct paint and original tank emblems make a 2003 FXDWG more desirable than non-anniversary years either side.
UK registration and paperwork: Bikes with V5C, NOVA correctly recorded and a run of MOT history are easier to sell and command more than unregistered imports.
Mileage and condition: Mid to low mileage examples with good tyres, brakes and suspension will always out-perform tired, high mileage cruisers that need money spending on them.
Originality versus custom work: Stage 1 style upgrades (pipes, filter and tune) are usually accepted, but heavy customising or chopped frames reduces appeal for most mainstream buyers.
Dealer versus private sale: Dealer machines with warranty, fresh service and finance options usually sit at the top of each band, while private sales and trade disposals come in lower.

Conclusion

As of November 2025, a 2003 Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide FXDWG in the UK typically sits around £4,500 to £6,000 for project or recommissioning bikes, £6,000 to £8,000 for honest roadworthy examples with average miles, and £8,000 to a little over £10,000 for very clean, low mileage 100th Anniversary machines from dealers. Exceptional bikes with low owners, full history and the right accessories can still push beyond the upper guide band, but most real world trading falls within the ranges above.
