What you describe is why I didn't want to try it. I've taken a 4 wheel drive SUV onto the beach at the northern end of the Outer Banks in North Carolina and, just as you describe, there was a pit of very soft sand right where the ramp dumped onto the beach. I did OK, but saw several cars get stuck and had to help push them out. I didn't want to mess with that with the bike (let alone the "sand everywhere" issue especially with a long ride back to Northern Virginia ahead of me. But I'll bet it was fun while you were out there!
I ride 4wd suvs on the beach very frequently here in Delaware, and at OBX also- in fact so often that I have a Tahoe that's pretty much used only for that purpose. It's critical to deflate your tires to 18-20 psi before going over the dune crossing, and if you still get stuck drop that to 15 psi.

Some great looking bike you guys have!! I can't wait to really start building up my RK and dialing it in just the way I want it. So far it is a mostly stock 07 peace officer special edition. HD stage 1 intake, Rinehart true duals, SERT tune. I pulled the smooth profile spoke rims and added 9 spoke wagon wheels, different grips, and a sundowner seat. Ride the wheels off it. I'll roll 70K this week. Wish I could lay claim to all 70K, but I boguht it a yr and a half ago @56K. My first HD and it is awesome.

Hey BMH. …Love your bike. I was in two minds about whether to go beach bar or apes. and also whether to how oath the two tone paint or stay just black and chrome. I took a look at the pics of your bike to see what you did with the rear. I am trying to decide if its worth chantings and if I do whether to go with the 16 fat spoke or 18. What you reckon on that? I am finding that the ride is just great with the 21 /16 and the front and rear lowered 2 inches. Is it worth going to 18 inch in the back?
