Start with the Ridgeback 330mm back tire and put a 124 S&S in there. Offer all Chrome as an option. Build a bullet proof EHC for it. Perfect bike!

that's some pretty high standards to meetA bike that gets more looks than all the models in SI's swimsuit addition combined, is as dependable as a teenage dick and retains its value better than a Harley.

K-9 with a 131ci by JIMS with an Big air carb and a Baker torque box with hydraulic clutch actuator and drive brake and open primary. Damn I think I have a winter project now...

So what price range do you think they should start things off at?
30K to start with standard features of 117cc S&S EFI, electronic gas gauge standard, HD tranny, better hand controls, simple wiring system. :2thumbs:
Upgrade Options??
1) Chrome plating: Wheels ,hand controls, triple tree, Cam cover
2) A couple different color seat choices
3) 124cc/131cc motor
4)Open Primary
5) Custom paint
6)

I forgot to mention that we need better battery boxes. Something more robust where the tabs don't break. The ultimate would be metal.

My thoughts are they did a lot right with their bikes.
Clearly, reliability is an issue, especially with the EE system, which must be addressed.
Thier business plan obviously has to be addreesed as well, more diverse models, price points perhaps.
I like the idea of more power train options. Other than that I am very happy with my bike..

They need to be in the same price range as a victory or HD for an entry level bike, but add packages.
Upgrade packs should be:
1. Billet wheels (wires are std.)
2. Chrome billet wheels
3. Chrome package
4. Paint package.
These packages should be deeply discounted at the time of purchase, but be available for purchase later at regular cost.
It is not an all or nothing world. People have different tastes and budgets. That needs to be catered to.

The 131ci is only 5/8" taller than a stock Harley, it would fit in the K-9, the 151ci Viper would be super cool.
