It seems like custom choppers are all the rage now, especially with the popularity of shows like Orange County Choppers and West Coast Choppers. They crank out some very expensive, very custom choppers for all kinds of clients, including famous ones like Shaq, Goldberg and Kidd Rock.
I have to admit, there’s not too many choppers from those shops that I like. At least none that have been shown on their shows. That said, there are some amazingly beautiful choppers out there.
Below are a few pictures of some choppers I really like. The one on the bottom is my all-time favorite chopper. Every time I see it, it impresses me more. It’s just motorcycle perfection, in my opinion.
man i think the orange bike is the best. plus my favorite color is orange so i think the bike is the ####..... just a lil slang…i also like the purple bike but u should change the syle a little bc it kinda looks like the orange bike…..... i also like the black bike bc of the no rear rim just on big hub…...... other then that the bikes kick ass…......................
I can’t really tell you anyhting about the first three bikes, but I can tell you about the last three. The hubless bike was built by Billy Lane and it was the first of its kind. He used the rotor bearing from a helicopter and the bike has a chain drive instead of a belt drive. If you feel like checking it out go to www.choppersinc.com The last two are Martin Bros. customs. I don’t remember their site off the top of my head, but you can always use a search engine and type in Martin Bros. and the website name shoul;d be somewhere at the top of the list.
Russ, you mentioned you liked the first bike, but I didn’t know who made it until now. It’s a German bike builder named Marcus Walz. His company is called Hardcore and they make a ton of awesome bikes. He was just featured in the Discovery Channel’s latest biker build-off and he won.
All of his bikes have that distinctive style like the first one, so I’ll bet you’d like his other stuff. There are several of his I really, really like.
Another great builder I’ve never heard of who has amazingly nice bikes is Roger Goldammer. That fire-engine red bike is just sick!
i like the 3er bike down all cuz it looks like a hover bike
