The American Ironhorse Texas Chopper and and the Big Dog K-9 motorcycle are my two favorite factory custom motorcycles. Personally, I don’t think there’s a better factory custom chopper than the Texas Chopper or the Big Dog K-9!
The Texas chopper was the flagship of the American Ironhorse line of custom motorcycles. I’ve owned a number of them, starting with the 2004 and ending with a 2006. As I said before the Texas chopper and the Big Dog K-9 are my favorite motorcycles! Currently I’m riding a 2017 Big Dog K-9 with 117 in.³ S&S engine.
Both the Texas Chopper and the Big Dog K-9 are head turner’s where ever they go. The Texas Chopper came with three engine choices, all S&S engines starting at 111, 117 and the 124 in.³. The Big Dog K-9 came with the S&S 117 inch engine and when they went back into business the K-9 was upgraded to the S&S 124 inch engine.
Both these beautiful choppers are over 9 feet long, and to me, are powerful, sleek, works of rolling art. The truth is, you can go out and buy a new Harley for probably somewhere in the $30,000 too low $40,000 range and it would still not generate the looks of a well-maintained Texas chopper or Big Dog K-9 if they are parked next to your brand-new bike!

This is a photo of a 2006 big dog motorcycle K-9 model that I purchased last year in Arizona. Even though this bike was 12 years old, it was basically used as a garage trophy.
It had the electrical EHC upgrade as well as chrome custom wheels and rotors. But, the real outstanding feature of this bike, was that it had under 400 original miles! Now, I know this is hard to believe, but I checked the mileage on service receipts, yes, the owner brought it in annually to have it serviced. Plus, I look first scraping on the frame under the engine. These bikes sit very low to the ground approximately I believe about 4 inches clearance, so the bottom of the frame always gets scraped up going in driveways putting the bike on a trailer etc.
From owning a number of big dogs and also American iron horse Texas chopper’s that also have very little ground clearance, I’ve gotten to know about how much scraping these choppers show with different mileage. Sure this is not an exact science, but just another indicator to use when trying to determine the real mileage. Read more
