Perhaps in the footsteps of Harley-Davidson's successful online video "Creed", Big Dog Motorcycles has released a new online video touting itself as the alternative to cookie-cutter motorcycles...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8T8p1LQh64
The entire video is themed on the notion that each biker is unique, and doesn't want to be like everyone else. Perhaps for Big Dog it's a little more fitting, being that there are already so many people who ride Harleys.
However, I'm not sure buying a Big Dog is any kind of expression of uniqueness. When bikes are marketed for their looks and horsepower, rather than handling, functionality, and comfort, you gotta wonder if the people buying them truly are looking to be unique.
That being said, Big Dog was considered America's second largest motorcycle manufacturer a couple years ago. Why not offer up a new motorcycle designed for transportation or riding, as opposed to just attracting "oohs and aahs"?
The way I see it, this whole "chopper phenomenon" is a fad like all the other fads, and will die out. Big Dog seems to be putting it all of its eggs into this basket.
The "chopper fad" --what's that? I rarely see one. Mostly it's $30k production custom motorcycles.
ReplyDeleteyou said Big Dogs are just for looking at well I have an 03 pit bull and I have allmost 21000 miles on it I have ridden it from NH to NY ground zero twice on charity rides and evry day to work if you think that its just a bike to look at well my freind you are mistaken
ReplyDeleteChopper fad? I get it you must mean the same chopper fad that was around back in the late 60's, its beeen going on for 30+ years , I ride mine all over , 5,000 miles the first 7 months, I may not be able to carry all my belongings, but it doesn't stop me from going.
