Need your opinion on a K9 purchase.

Not really feeling the graphics at this point but I really need to see it.

If you have a yellow vette then you should get a yellow bikes.

I test rode a yellow bourget chopper last fall and I didn't buy it, have been looking for a chopper ever since.

One good thing about this 2007, former dealer has done a wiring up date. I don't know all the details but would hope that it fixes the electric problems that I read about.

That color is hot and eagles and flags are cool but the graphics look out of place on that dog. It is a good price though especially if the wiring has been done. I agree with using the paint as a bargaining chip.

I just had the PDM installed on my 06' - 1200 bones. In terms not having to do it to the 07' you're looking at reduces the price by that much, IMO. I think the price is good, given a thorough inspection, ride, and everything checking out. As mentioned - you may NEVER get over the paint, though. A buddy of mine is trying to peddle his 06' right now for 20...that 07' is a bargain compared to my buddy's! On another note, I bought a used 08' FLHX, deal was right, knew the bike & owner, loved the ride, though didn't care much for the color...odd, but I dig the color now as maybe 10% of the baggers I see have the same...just my experience.

Another plus: bike already has the S&S rocker boxes...deal is getting sweeter!

I am going to ask here instead starting a new thread. Can anyone tell me the difference between a 250 chopper and the K9. I seen a chopper Saturday and it's the first BD I have ever seen. Just wondering what's different about the K9 besides the 300 tire. The chopper was a 2005.

[midwest]

I know 05' was the first year for the right side drive on the Chopper, which balanced the bike out (big improvement over the pre-05's). K9 is longer by nearly a foot (which means the K9 doesn't handle as well...if we can say EITHER handle very well in the first place). Other than that ???????

Wish it was a little closer, kind of a long trip for me just to look at the color. What do you guys think?

Does anybody have a different picture of this color? I search around and nothing looks like this orange. If I like the base color I could always have the flames I want put on it.

You've been dicking around for a week over this bike. Either shit (buy it) or get off the pot.
You want it.....or you don't. It's that simple. Don't over think it.
Sorry but that is my opinion.

[Slick-Dog]

Looks like the same color as Nukerangers bike (base color) ....K9`s and ridgebacks are just sleek looking PERIOD!!!! Choopers are to...Iam not going to forget them... I own one heheheh...

[Knuckles]

Well, what did you decide?
I'm kidding. Take your time, kick the tires, have it repainted.....you have all winter to ride.

[prizepup]

It looks more like copper. Just my , no pun intended...

[Nukeranger]

If it looks like this!

or this

or this

or maybe this

It could be copper, burnt orange or kinda red but the metalic color looks really good during the day, at night or even in the house!

I should have cleaned out the weeds and leaves from the lava rocks prior to changing my tire and taking a picture. Wait, on second thought I had my priorities right.
