It's a 2008 Saxon Villain. It has a 96 ci S&S motor, 6-speed trans and rightside drive. I got a good deal on it so it has a ew home. I can' wait to get back home so I can get some seat time on it. It rides completely different than my Roadking.

I have passenger pegs and a suction cup passenger seat that goes with it. It is my bar bike and I'll probably be by myself on it, at least for awhile.

:eek::eek:
I know that's the way it is, but I would still be kind of skeptical knowing the only thing holding my ass to the fender are a few suction cups.


Nice ride though! How does it handle?
 
Very nice looking ride.

A great local bar hopper. One of these days I will either turn my fatboy into a bar hopper or sell it and get a bar hopper.

The CVO Road Glide has become my distance bike.

I haven't really riden it yet, just around my subdivision. I bought it then the next day left town to go to work. I'll be back home next Wed and plan on finding out!

I know, but guess what...the rider seat attaches the same way but with a hook in the front. I have several friends that have the same type passenger seat on their chops and havent had any problems.
I definitly rides different than my Roadking. The 300 rear tire makes it harder to turn but I'll adjust to it. The little I road it before I left for work it road pretty smooth.

I've debated about tricking out my Roadking but decided I really wanted a Pro Street bike. I still have the Roadking for road trips.

This will slow down my plans to mod my truck which is probably a good thing cause I'd probably get in trouble hotrodding around town.

I find it all too easy getting in trouble hot rodding around town on a Bike.):h
 
I would love to get another bike again someday. I had to sell mine a couple years ago when I broke a carpel bone in my wrist and was out of work for 3 months with no disability insurance. I loved that bike. It was an 00 softail. I had put a 150 on the rear, widest I could go stock. Put avon super venom tires on front and back. What a huge difference in handling. I almost didn't make it around an on ramp with the skinny factory tire once. I was leaned right over, made it almost to the guard rail before it caught.
Man I loved my bike.
 
Nice looking chopper. Had one many years ago until I decided that my last close call might be my last close call... Sold it and haven't ridden since.
Still have the urge though but haven't given in:nono:

That's one thing I won't do is hotrod around on my bike. That almost got my killed when I was young :nono:

I have had more close calls hot roding my Vette than I have a Harley. Crotch rockets are another story and why I do not own a crotch rocket.
 
You're gonna love that 96 inch stroker. If I remember right, they put down 100+HP. My buddy has one in a FXR, It's way fast. He smokes my bike(85hp) easily and often.
 
I have no idea on the hp but I sure love the way it sounds. I'll be back in town tonight and get to start breaking it in tomorrow. :D

And I would get myself in trouble big time with that. It's a concourse right?

Yep, bought it last year and I have put 16k miles on it already....It is really too much for me, throttle hard almost pulls my fingers off the grip...
