Chopper Chopper description

I originally built this bike in 2005 as a show bike.  Never put many miles on it - as show bikes tend to be, it was great to look at, but not great to ride.  A couple years ago, I decided to rebuild the bike into something that would be great looking and a lot of fun to ride.  It's been a complete transformation - just finished it up about a month ago (if you're a serious bidder and you'd like to see what it originally looked like, I can email pictures), and you're looking at the result.

Everything on this bike is either new or completely rebuilt,  with a killer new black and charcoal paint/powdercoat/anodized look throughout, and I have less than 100 miles on it since then - just enough to get the carb dialed in and make sure everything works like it should.
  • New Ultima 113" engine with new S&S Super G carb
  • Baker 6-speed transmission
  • Modified Boyce open belt primary
  • Pro Street Frameworks 5"up, 3"out, 45deg, dropped the tail in order to add a spring/shock under the new seat
  • New one-off gas tank with black diamond plate inlays on the sides
  • One-off oil tank with hidden oil filter
  • Paughco 42" tapered springer, 3deg
  • PM master cylinder and front brake, freshly rebuilt, new front rotor
  • Exile rear sprocket brake, freshly rebuilt
  • New one-off foot controls
  • New one-off pipes
  • New wheels

There's much more, but a well-built bike is more than just a collection of parts.  Take a look at the pictures, and see how the lines of the bike flow from the tank through the seat.  Check out the detail work, like AN fittings and braided black line for the oil lines instead of just rubber line and hose clamps.  The wiring and brake lines are all hidden, and the paint and molding work are fantastic.  I have pictures of all the in-progress fabrication work, and would be happy to email them to any serious bidders - you will see that all the fabrication work is top-notch.  I am a professional welder and fabricator, have worked in NASCAR, and have built several show-winning bikes along with the race cars and street rods that I work on every day - this is not a "back yard" build.

The starting price is well below even the cost of the parts for a motorcycle like this - if you've been looking at true one-of-a-kind motorcycles, you know this is a steal. 

I'm happy to answer any questions about the bike, and invite you to come check it out in person.  Pictures really don't do it justice, and you won't be disappointed.

Kittens love wooden motorbikes

Thu, 21 Jun 2012

A chopper true to it's word as Hungarian motorcycle enthusiast Istvan Puskas quite literally spent two years chopping wood to make his dream ride. The one-of-a-kind bike, built by the 52-year-old tractor driver from Budapest, is made from water resistant black locust wood and is powered by a small engine donated from a Fiat. It also turns out that adorable kittens like it too...

2010 Honda Fury: New Honda Chopper Motorcycle?

Sun, 30 Nov 2008

UPDATE (May 19): Official 2010 Honda Fury Pricing UPDATE (Feb 27): The Honda Fury Review is finally here!!! Some may baulk at Honda’s description of the Fury as “radical.” Sure it’s not mind-blowing in the way a $60K custom can be, but it’s worth noting that not even Harley-Davidson has produced a bike with a rake angle so stretched or a wheelbase as long. So let’s admit that, for the normally staid Honda, the Fury is radical.
