Pic of my Big Dog. Pipes are WTFs from Martin Brothers. I'll post pics of my '05 Deluxe later this weekend.

Nice lookin ride Gregor, it would be fun to be able to sit on one sometime to see how it felt to be on a chopper. How do you like the way that it handles on the highway?

Nice looking scoot Mark,

I've been eyeing the Big Dogs for awhile. Really like the looks. What size is your rear tire?

It's a 250 rear and handles like a dream. You get used to a little more butt sliding when doing anything more that straight-line highway riding to get it on edge, but other than that it's perfect. I've added a sissybar and passenger pillion over the winter, need to get updated pics taken. I put about 10k on it so far, longest day trip was about 350 miles. I normally do 6-800 mile days when traveling, but not a chance of hell on this bike. It does get you the looks when cruising the city though. :-)

I was thinking about trading in for a Ridgeback myself. Love the look.

Cool ride. I know a guy who has the same pipes and the header pipes has turned completely gold, hope yours doesn't do the same. It really takes away from a good looking ride IMO. Watch the left hand turns with that baby!

I have to agree with you there, Mac. They're clean and simple but sharp.
