nusevad · 04-10-2008, 09:29 PM

cycler · 04-10-2008, 10:27 PM

These are some pics of my bigdog bulldog. They arent the best of pics but not bad. Since the pics were taken Ive had the wheels powder coated black and left some chrome on the spokes

nusevad · 04-10-2008, 10:41 PM

damn cycler that bike is sweet as hell!

What is that cone shaped thing? Air intake?

cycler · 04-10-2008, 10:42 PM

yeah its the intake.....i put it forward 2 weeks ago

nusevad · 04-10-2008, 10:45 PM

sweet, i actually like it facing up.

Your chopper is badass. How much does a custom one like that run?

btw, why do they call them choppers?

cycler · 04-10-2008, 10:49 PM

This isnt a chopper. This is called a pro-street. I totalled my chopper March 25th 2007. Both a chopper and pro-street are usually raked out the same....meaning the front end is kicked out further. A choppers gas tank is pointed upwards and the handlebars are highter while a pro-streets handle bars are lower and the gas tank is straight giving it the impession that it isnt raked out as much. So because the choppers tank is pointed upwards it looks like there is a lot of space between the tank and forks and gives it the impression that the chopper is raked our further than a pro-street

cycler · 04-10-2008, 10:50 PM

www.bigdogmotorcycles.com makes this bike and a few others. They are the largest custom manufacturer in the country. This bike ran me $36K

nusevad · 04-10-2008, 10:51 PM

ooo i see

wow...are OCC bikes any good? I watched a few episodes on TLC and their bikes are pretty cool.

cycler · 04-10-2008, 10:56 PM

OCC bikes use the same engine manufacturer that big dog uses...same transmission....same brakes...and they each make their own tanks fenders, frames and wheels and handlebars. But usually OCC bikes are more expensive because A) they are on tv and B) they sell a lot less bikes
