everyone has their thing they like to do, ride bikes or tinker on them, same with cars or anything else we all do in our own way, we all have some sort of hobby that we take enjoyment from. to each his own.

I was shopping for a harley when I came across the big dog, and i'm glad I did. It rides easier than it looks with the airbagged rear suspension and it's a head turner.

I picked up the Road Glide recently so we can take longer trips.

No, I've done a couple hundred miles in a day, solo, but that's it. Its not an iron butt ride machine for sure as you are lucky to get 100 miles between fuel stops. I don't know if you would want to ride a breakout or Rocker for too many more miles either tho

the fellas here tend to think the Big Dog could be used as a cross country bike if you just strapped a bag on and went. you've ridden the bike, what's your opinion

So far I've ridden my Rocker 300+ miles in a day, several times. I'm fairly confident thst I could comfortably ride 500 in a day.

I have seen people on the Big Dog forums do it. However, I would not. It's awesome for a few hours around town bar hopping tho.

DiscobayJoe your bike has a nice clean look...
It doesn't matter how long you can ride,
if you are looking for confort than ride in the car...

I ride my Rocker 400km without any pain or problem. (I did some changes to improve that)
