I love this bike. Can not say how happy I am with Big Dog, only wish is I could have a Mastiff along side the K-9 in the garage. Front tire was going soft but a tube fixed that (dealership no problem).... read more

This is my second K9, so I guess it stands to reason that I more than like this bike. The looks, handling and performace are great. Crusing at speeds of 70 and 75 are not a problem for this machine. Very stable and light. Corners and turns are very easy even with a passenger.... read more

I wish they would offer a chrome package as well. Billet is a pain to maintain.

Went to the local bike shop looking at a 2006 Mastiff and left with a 2006 K9! The Mastiff was awesome but the K9 left me breathless. The thing handles like a dirt bike. Easy to ride, incredible performance and with some pipes added, sounds tough. The design and detailing make for a beautiful bike. The service from my local BDM dealer has been phenomenal and I have no doubt BDM MFG is just as incredible. The only disappointing thing about this experience is the fact that this rating only allows me to give them an overall 5, cuz the K9 is easily a 10.

I just purchased a 2007 K-9 and it is the smoothest riding cycle I've owned. I recently took a 100+ mile trip from D.C. to Pennsylvania and it was a joy - you'd appreciate the quiet 6th gear above 70+ mph. This machine felt better than my 2005 Harley V-Rod (Screamin' Eagle).

I just purchased a 2007 K-9 and it is the smoothest riding cycle I've owned. I recently took a 100+ mile trip from D.C. to Pennsylvania and it was a joy - you'd appreciate the quiet 6th gear above 70+ mph. This machine felt better than my 2005 Harley V-Rod (Screamin' Eagle). My arms cramped a little toward the end of the trip but I'll take the cramp for this puppy! Acceleration is precise and cornering the fat 300 rear is just a mental thing-not as bad as critics claim by far. The K-9 is, by far, a fine cruiser and eye-candy to most.

The ride is great and with the pillion pad and sissy bar my wife was able to go on a 300 mile, 1 day trip with me in relative comfort.

I've had my K-9 for just a little over six weeks, and already put 3200 miles on. You can't do it if it's not comfortable. The ride is great and with the pillion pad and sissy bar my wife was able to go on a 300 mile, 1 day trip with me in relative comfort. The performance is more than I anticipated, the one drawback is stopping for gas. You can't get out of a station without at least a few pictures and lots of questions.

Then, the highlight....I took the BIG DOG K-9 to Myrtle Beach Bike Week....road about 7 hours or so from Atlanta each way, rode everyday in the crowd.... it ran like a champ, is pretty darn comfy for a Chopper on a 7 hour drive....not even one tiny problem, and 150 miles to the tank!...**my friend rode a new IRONHORSE and he had pieces flying off everywhere!!! The k-9 was perfect...drew a crowd, lots of thumbs up.... BUY ONE! Windshield ain't too good,,,,but the bike is swweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Ride it, love it.
