This chopper is a 1983 body with a 1979 HEART!!! Black and Orange in color, everything is powder coated. This 1979 motor only had 8900 miles on it, but had been sitting outside for since 1987, so just about everything needed replacing.
Complete top end rebuild, new clutch and clutch parts, and just about everything on the bottom end was replaced too. The hard tail section is from G&L Choppers, but I’m building my own hard tail section for the next bike! Custom forward control and custom made & wrapped exhaust pipes. Rebuilt the carbs, new air filters. Seat is made from Saddle leather and is a custom design, seat was done by MATT @ Workingmanscustoms.
The front froks have been shaved and powder coated and the spring have been replaced. The wheels have been rebuilt and powder coated. I also removed the back arm bracket, for the rear brake, and made a custom mount for the rear brake, very clean. I’ve put 12″ ape hangers, for the handle bars, and a small speedometer. Had some problems with the inner workings of the kick start, so I had to completely remove the kick start, so the bike is now fully electric start.
I also got rid of the points. The tail light and brake is off a 1955 Caddy and the licence plate mounts on the side with the brake light. I was going for the simple clean look. Thanks for looking, just started the next Chopper, it’s going to be more of a flat track look!
Thanks again from Wicked Choice Kustoms!
