"I am extremely delighted that this ‘one of one’ custom made motorcycle is now in India. Once you take a seat on the Big Dog Motorcycle, you will know what makes for ultimate comfort. The chopper’s beastly growl will make your ears stand on end,” he added further.

The company has an experience of 22 years in making road legal high-performance cruisers and choppers and has delivered over 3 lakh motorcycles till date in the global market. And their growth has now allowed them to finally land in the Indian market. Big Dog provides numerous customising options to its customers which will allow them to personalise their bikes and the company claims that no two motorcycles will ever be the same in India.
Coming to the very first Big Dog bike launched in India, the K9 Red Chopper 111 is ‘One of One’, built under the aegis of Kansas Motor Works (KMW). It comes with a 37-degree rake with elongated telescopic forks at the front, providing it with a wheelbase of 2,082mm. With an overall length of 2,743mm, the bike offers a saddle height of just around 622mm and a ground clearance of 115mm. The huge S&S Superslider engine of the bike comes mated to a Jim’s 6-Speed, Right-Side-Drive, Close Ratio, Straight Cut gearbox that Big Dog claims is bulletproof. It sources specialised COBRA tyres from Avon; 83mm wide for the 21-inch front wheel and a massive 250mm wide tyre for the 18-inch rear wheel. Both the front and rear disc brakes come with 4-piston from Performance Machine. But the most important feature of the Big Dog K9 Red Chopper is its outstanding custom made design that is more than enough to make you stand apart from the crowd.
