I did it! I’m official now!!!

[Big Unit]

Picked up my 08 BDM Ridgeback yesterday. Feel like an official member now. LoL

So you guys know all of the newbie questions are coming.

To start I plan to get some extended forward controls to make this beast fit my 6’10 frame a little better. Any suggestions?

Aside from going over every nit and bolt on this thing... Any key things I should look out for?

Bike has a lil over 4k miles. But has been sitting for a couple years.

Thanks in advance guys!

I attached some pics so you guys can check it out.

Great looking bike. Aside from the foot pegs too close, how are you liking it?

I love it. Rides a lot better than expected.

I’m not worried too much about the foot pegs. Extended forwards will prob be one of the first things I do i. The off season.

Are the spiked foot pegs the only styles out there for these bikes?

looks sharp. not sure of your set up but i was able to put 3" extensions on mine without modifying the brake line on the pitbull. got the kit from DM Custom Machine Products. not sure if they are still around but i'm sure there is someone else on here that mounted them more recently.

at the time they did make longer versions

I actually dont feel bad on the stock locations. 3” extensions. Would be perfect!

Hey Big Unit...nice looking Dog for sure, congrats

There are other options for pegs, I have a set from Dlxprod (cant remember the link but it is on here somewhere), I also have extended controls mine are the 2.5" and I think I have seen guys mention on here that they have longer ones, Search around on the site and see what others have. Im sure others will chime in here.

Enjoy the ride Brother

Thx man. Yea with all I have been learning so far being apart of this forum. I’m confident I will be able to fine tune everything without too much issues.

Beautiful bike! Congrats! I am 6'3" and I have the 2.5" extended forward controls on my Pibull so you may want to contact @Mr.Wright aka Shannon and see if he can make you some 4" extensions. I know I read on the forum that someone was making custom extensions for members.
