Handling

I have a custom built chopper. Closely resembles a BG chopper. I'm curious on the handling of the Chopper and K9 on open highways. Does the bike hold the road well at say 85mph ? Do you have some wobble in the front when your behind a tractor trailer? I realize all chops have some handling issues just curious on the BD.

Mine has no problems (and I am sure you will hear this as common) up and past 120. I can and have (as many) ride 90-100 on the highway all damn day. No handling problems.

:eek:120 is dynamic. The problem is you get there in such a short time. Then the dog wants to go faster!! HOLD ON after 120

20,000 miles on my 06 K9, the speedo pegged plus countless times, and have still yet to encounter my first case of chopper wobble. Only chopper I've ever owned where that hasn't happened. Sometimes gets alittle squirrely while whippin around a tractor trailor at 90 or above. But hey, gota have something to keep you on your toes, right?! These bikes LOVE cruising in the 80 to 85 mph range
