Well you did stay with BDM. As for the Pitbull I don't have a clue. Apples to oranges kind of thing. But I do have a 2004 Chopper RT 117" that I absolutely love, owned since new. I always end up looking at the new K-9's or the Ridgebacks when I go to my dealer but I can't stand the thought of giving my 04' up. Probably keep it and get a, dare I say, Ultra Classic. So with that being said you should be happy with it. Good luck.

I guess it's how strong your back is ... I got an 05 Ridgeback ... I just like the way it looks compared to the chopper ... in 06 I test rode the K-9 but it just didn't feel right. Now that's just me ... There are times when I wish there was more suspension. I need to go test ride the K-9 again I think ... :D :flag: My wife won't ride on the back anymore ... :confused:

Thanks for the comments. Im going to get some airbrush work done on it. Since it has the flag already on it I'm thinking of doing some kindof thanks to the troops. Even though I'm partial to the Corp I'm needing some ideas to put on it. Maybe a POWMIA flag on one side of the oil tank. Maybe a saying on the rear fender like Give thanks where it do, or some gave all. Any ideas????? Maybe a picture of Iwo Jima on the tank? What do ya think.

Lovin' the paint.

As far as the switch, I like the softail design myself, along with the tall and long choppers/K-9's.

Either way, if it makes you happy, you made the right decision to me. :up:

Iwo Jima on the tank would be bad ass! :flag:

Maybe Semper Fi across the rear fender.

I'm trying to think long term. You know when if I ever sell it. I want it to appeal to everyone. I'd love to put a Big ass EGA on it some where. But only marine would like that. Damn Jar Heads! LOL Any military sayings welcome.

I was planning on switching to a rigid frame sometime in the near future until I rode a ridgeback a few weeks ago. There is a big difference in around town driving. Highway it was fine, but you really feel all the bumps when you're going slower.

i am a fan of the chopper beins as though i personally own one...but to each his own......i alllways thought the choppers were for us littler guys and the k9s were for taller guys but boy was i wrong......i like the patriotic paint scheme....

I was thinking the same thing. Saw a few of those same cars last weekend on I75.

I think you should contact Airburshed and see what he can think up.

Nice looking scoot, congrats !!

I see you're having the same problem that I had with the slash cut tips on my mean mothers - I never could get them to stay straight......
