Default possible new toy when I come back

A few guys I work with are kicking around taking a long bike trip when we come back from Afganistan...I've picked this one out for myself.

It looks like a rigid but its not. you have to read the spec. sheet on it..Its a good price for a total custom from the frame up..I looked and placed my ass in a few choppers over at Big Dog the other day...but the price is a little heavy.

Not my cup of tea... but looks like a pretty sweet ride! If there's suspension in the rear, it might be cool for cruising, but I always thought the seating position on those bikes would kick your ass on long rides... not just the harsh ride.
