Chopper DT or RT ??

I am new to the Big Dog world, so could someone explain the difference between a 2003 Chopper DT and Chopper RT. I do not know which one that I have.

Thank you, i have a DT, but what is a DT ?

RT = Frame by Rolling Thunder

DT = Frame by Daytec

Ok... I knew the frame is a Daytec, but I didn't put the two together.

Thank you

There are minor differences in frame dimensions and offsets between the two. As an example...RT rear fender struts have a different offset than the DT struts; so sissy bar kits are not interchangeable between the different frames.

I also beleive the compensator sprocket offset is different also > Transmission to
motor offset .1 1/2 " Daytec . 1 9/16 " Rolling Thunder.
