RE: HDF's BADDEST BAGGER?
Thanks Etrader, for posting the pics of the 155" and to all the rest of you as well.It did take a lot of years building bikes to finally realize the only way to ever get what I was looking for was go all out.This bike only needs one more carb jet change to finish the tuneup,everything else is worked out.Lyndall brakes takes care of bringing the speed down in a hurry.The Transmission is a Zippers modified 5 speed,final gearing is 2:05.The exhaust is stepped 2" out to 2 1/2" with custom built Stainless mufflers.The pipes are also tuned as per R&R.Finally, want to say that the R&R gang were great during the dailin phase,I was on the phone with them a lot making sure the tune was right.Dog

Awsome engine. I like the looks of the bike, clean, simple, power. I can only imaging the internal mods that had to be made with those jugs.
P.S. Did I tell ya'll that I put a 1200 kit on my 03 883 Custom. Boy did it scream!

everytime I start reading threads and see cwilks avatar, I totaly loose focus on what I was reading about.
I now have a sudden urge to order a beer and pull out a dollar bill.

In response I personally wish to interject: I believe everyone has their own idea of what they like in a bike. That is what making riding a Harley so great. What might be good for one might not be good for another.
DOG155 has been riding for quite some time and has refined his taste to what he likes. He is older and mature and I am sure he has done his dumb tricks we all do at 17 years old. I guess with maturity one develops the skills required to ride a fine piece of machinery like he has created. He did not put on a store bought set of wheels, have someone paint his bike, and throw on some chrome covers and performance hampering accessories. Dog155 is evidently not interested in a bike like the aforementioned. He built the bike for the road. I have never heard him say one ill word (in the year I have been a member of this forum) other to offer help, he has never disrespected any members with bikes that are not performance oriented (which he has succeeded in achieving).
I'll bet you can't outrun my radar gun!
Maybe Dog155 has no need to operate his motorcycle in an unsafe manor to warrant a radar gun being pointed at him. I have had the privilege of speaking with him on a few occasions and he is a stellar Harley enthusiast. He has been doing this motorcycle thing longer than you personally been alive, judging by your age in your photograph. I am sure he has passed more radar guns and speed traps in his decades or riding. His riding privileges are currently in tact as proof.
I believe everyone should ride the bike of their dreams. One's dream is another nightmare. I only dream of a 200ci Turbo in my bagger.

Wish mine had that raw power!
