I have a chopper and would like to eventually get a K-9. But I want a Roadglide as well so probably not get a second anytime soon.
4 Ridgebacks in one family attest to how impressive this machine is.I have an '05 and an '08 ridgeback. two of my sons have ridgebacks so having a spare comes in handy sometimes.
Seems like you always need a mule from time to time. The Chopper is fun to ride but it's like a hot rode. Ride it, fix something, go ride, clean it, ride, fix,..... But I still smile each time I ride it so I will live with it. Still want a K-9. I love the look of it.I seem to have a Chopper, a K9, CVO Ultra and a Fatboy. Oh yeah, old BMW GS too. Chopper, Fatboy and Beemer in Finland and Ultra&K9 in USA. Fatboy being too small for me I’m selling it and maybe get me a King or a Street Glide. Different days, different needs.
My main purpose for having more than one bike is so that I'm able to ride if the other bike is down.I thought this thread was about "How many Big Dogs you had" and not all the other toys we all have?
The question was about having two big dogs in the sense that those are the most fun bikes to ride as opposed to using a beater for commuting purposes etc.Ok,
So your question isn't really about having 2 or more Big Dogs. I have 3 Triumphs and one of them is a lot louder than my Big Dog.
I've never warmed up a bike for 5 minutes. Maybe one minute and then easy riding out of the neighborhood. I don't have the patience to wait 5 minutes.
You shouldn't give any bike throttle with the enricher or choke on.The question was about having two big dogs in the sense that those are the most fun bikes to ride as opposed to using a beater for commuting purposes etc.
As far as the 5 minute wait, I'm thinking that instead of easing off the enricher over the course of 5 minutes, I could take off riding and ease off the enricher during the first 5 minutes of my ride, is that feasable? (first time owning a carb'ed bike)
Yes another favorable review of the Coyote, I've been noticing a lot of good things being said about the CoyoteI have 4 big Dogs:
1. 2004 chopper
2. 2007 Mastiff
3. 2009 Coyote
4. 2009 Wolf anniversary edition #9
Also 2008 Harley CVO springer that I very rarely ride. Mostly ride the Coyote fast and gets through corners real nice and a little lighter than my other bikes. Oh yah Donna and Derik are my best friends lots of parts over last 4 years!! I eliminated most of my polished aluminum got it chromed!! Yes I'm retired!!!
Just out of curiosity, American Ironhorse is out of business yet those bikes are selling for high prices.04 & 06 American Iron Horse~ Lone Star Choppers
Just out of curiosity, American Ironhorse is out of business yet those bikes are selling for high prices.
To me the lack of availability of parts (I don't consider having to find a used part of eBay to be readily available) was why I never considered one.
One example is the pulley that you can't get anymore. Any idea why the prices seem high?
