Does anyone have any experience with the Big Dog Motorcycles. They are a High Performance Custom. I'm looking at the Ridgeback, Chopper an the Pit Bull.
Thanks in advance,
Biggie

Seen them at all the Rallys I have attended.Checked out there bikes they had set up in there booth and thought they all appeared worth it but I'm just not a chopper women. I love to see other people on them and enjoy checking the bikes out.I don't know a single person who owns one. On the other hand I do have a couple of buddies that own the Iron Horse or what ever the chopper is that Mancuso sells!!! Sorry I couldn't help.....

LOL Stacy I must agree! I'm working a deal on a ridgeback right now. I've got an old swingarm Harley so what the hey, a hard tail couldn't possibly hurt. LOL
S&S has been around as long as I can remember and S&S was the best back in the 80's when I did the majority of my riding. I can remember when the first S&S carbs came out. Back then they didn;t have an accelorator pump so the response from the throttle left you having to get used to it.
Mine will be right side drive with a 6 speed Baker transmission. Baker always has made a good tranny.
The thing I,m somewhat curious about is the computer. It's propriotery. When I did a lot of riding the first thing we would do was take the electronic ignition out and replace with points and condensor. The electronic ingnition Harley put in their bikes back then really stunk but it was a problem easily cured. I'm kind of wondering if I will want to yank this computer one day and three wire this thing. don't know.
Well thanks for responding and good talking to ya.
