G'day from Oz brother. I am seriously looking at this model Chief, so I really appreciate your personal thoughts regarding this bike. I'm 6'1, so I reckon I should be able to fit the bike comfortably enough. Have to wait for these bikes to come to our shores before I can have the opportunity to test one out. Glad I can catch up with you again mate. Great review, cheers brother.
Good to see you again RH!
Thanks!
Love the content. Scott and his family are the best over at Indian okc.
I'm honestly sold on getting this but I'm more curious whether to do 6 or 10 inch risers
Im 6'0 and decided on 6 inch risers
Hmmm second bike to go with the Challenger Elite maybe, but throw the Lloydz 126 engine kit on it, real sleeper then with only 680 odd lbs
Good to see an upload from you sir!!
Sounds like you are yelling 10:29
