Ive always wanted a chopper for as long as I can remember.. I was browsing eBay late one night and came across a flat black 05 ridgeback that I fell in love with. The bike was at a dealer in Arizona I'm in New Orleans..... To make a ling story short. My bike left Arizona yesterday and is on it's way to NoLa..... After talking to a few people after I pulled the trigger.. I'm afraid I might not be tall enough for the bike... I'm 5'6 ..... Am I screwed?

it might be a bit of a stretch for you arms, does it have fwd control extentions already on it ??
And the only real mistake is not doing an INTRO

Nah. Check fleabay, you'll find what is called "push seat" for sale there. made by Big Dog. That seat will specifically address your needs. Also, check bigdog.com, I think they might sell a "retracted" foot peg mount as well. Not sure though.

Welcome to the pound! You'll love your dog before you roll over the first mile, guaranteed!

cYa!

Dont worry! 2008 Ridgeback bars will bring it right back to you! It will be fine! Your fun is on the way!!!!

Foot note. Make sure the rear wheel recall is done. If you call me i will run the history on it and check the recalls.

Yo Nola, thats a goood lookn scoot you'll be fine, ride it for awhile and if you need to check out the push seat thats a great call and one that escapes me alot cause I'm 6'5" and the push isnt on my mind, but great advise, enjoy your new pup & post some pics when you can, congrats

ya still need to do an INTRO
:cheers:

How come if this intro is such a big deal it isn't simply part of the registration process? Seems to me you should have to write your intro and submit before you are allowed on the site. I'm just saying, it's always a topic and doesn't need to be. And by the way, the rear wheel recall hasn't been done, the new wheel is a much smoother design instead of that stepped look in their pics. Great bike, you'll love it!
