WELL, i HAVE A 06 K-9, THE FIRST CLUTCH CARRIER HAD A DEFECT IN DESIGN, UPDATED TO THE 07 AND NEW CLUTCH CARRIER, WELL, LAST WEEK THAT ONE BROKE JUST LIKE THE FIRST ONE, THEREFORE IN MY OPINION THE CLUTCH IS STILL A PIECE OF SHIT THAT BAKER MAKES, i DONT HOT ROD MY BIKE (USE TO OWN A CROTCH ROCKET, SO IF i WANTED TO GO FAST i WOULD HAVE KEPT IT), THIS BIKE HAS GIVEN ME NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS AND BIG DOG SAYS THEYVE NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING MY BIKE HAD DONE, LIKE,
1. THE FRONT FENDER BRACKETS BROKE AND AS THE FENDER FLEW OFF IT CAUGHT THE INSIDE OF MY FORKS AND RIM AND SCRATCHED THE CHROME(THE SAID IT WAS BECAUSE MY BOLTS MUST HAVE BEEN LOOSE, BUT IF THE BOLTS WERE LOOSE THEN WHY DID HALF OF BOTH BRACKETS COME OFF WITH THE FENDER?),
2. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE O-RING STARTED BLOWING OUT AROUND THE BOTTOM OF MY PUSH ROD COVERS(COME TO FIND OUT THERE WAS NEVER A VENT LINE PUT IN FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CASES FROM THE FACTORY), OF COURSE ALL THE MECHANICS SAY "IVE NEVER HEARD OF THAT BEFORE", I HAVE LOOKED AT ALOT OF THEM AND SOME HAVE IT, SOME DONT, SO FOR YOU THAT DONT, TAKE CAUTION)
3. ODOMETER FELL APART
4. RIGHT SIDE TAIL LIGHT JUST FELL OFF (YES THE BOLTS ARE CHECKED EVERY WEEK BUT THAT CHEAP ASS METAL THEY USE STRIPPED OUT)
5. PLUG FOR AIR RIDE BROKE, DIDNT HAVE ANY SUSPENSION TILL i GOT HOME AND RIPPED EVERYTHING OUT TO REPAIR.
6. CLUTCH CARRIER BROKE IN HALF, REPAIRED WITH NEW CARRIER AND WAS GAURANTEED (BY WORD OF MOUTH) THAT IT WOULDNT BREAK AGAIN.
7. NEW UPDATED CLUTCH CARRIER BROKE, WHERES THAT GAURANTEE? NO PROFF SO i BOUGHT ANOTHER. THEN THE ASSHOLE AT MANCUSO (HOUSTON TX) TOLD ME THAT HALF THE FUN OF OWNING A MOTORCYCLE IS WORKING ON IT, WHAT A DIPSHIT AND THAT REALLY PISSED ME OFF, SEEMS LIKE FOR 35GRAND I WOULD OWN A BIKE THAT WOULD MAKE IT AT LEAST 10000 MILES BEFORE FALLING APART, BUT ALL I GOT WAS 1970'S TECHNOLOGY WITH A 2050 YEAR PRICE, NEXT TIME ITS GONNA BE JAPANESE AGAIN, LESS COST, MORE VALUE, NO OIL LEAKS AND PROBLABLY NEVER SEE ANOTHER SHOP AGAIN.
WHAT DO I THINK OF BIG DOG? WELL, I WOULDNT EVEN PISS ON THE FACTORY IF IT WAS ON FIRE TO SAVE THE PEOPLES LIVES THAT BUILT MY BIKE.
I KNOW THIS IS PRETTY HARDCORE BUT IM NOT ONE THAT LIKES TO THROW MONEY AWAY.
