I think the owners of this 2004 Custom Built Chopper really say it best when they tell the viewer to go look at all the cookie cutter choppers that are out there, with their generic paint jobs, and compare them to this...masterpiece. Yeah, masterpiece is the only word I can use to describe this bike. The paintwork is phenomenal, the design is breathtaking.
You can say I like it. A little.
To be honest, with the unique style you're getting with this chopper, you're also getting a good price. $35,000. Not bad for something this unique. Not bad at all.
Click one of the pictures below to take a look at some of the shots they provide. The level of detail is incredible.
From the auction itself:
Every single part has been chromed, billeted, and/or custom painted. One of the most noticeable aspects of this bike is the paint which has a very rich Mahogany Base, topped with Apricot Flake, then topped with Root Beer Candy, with Silver Leaf Graphics in a Bandana Pattern. Combine that with a VERY, VERY, RARE Sugar Bear Front End, and the one off custom metal whiskey barrels make this bike a SHOW PIECE!
By the way, the rum barrels are functional…the left side is the Oil Tank, and the right side is a lockable glove box
So, does she run as good as she looks? She runs AWESOME! The motor is a 113 Ultima “EL BRUTO” show polished engine with ported heads, a 620 lift cam, and 42 mm Mukuni carb. It takes some getting use to before cracking the throttle. J The tranny is a 6 speed with a BDL open primary and custom cut cover. The pipes are Eddie Trotta Thunder Cycle design and let’s just say that with the cam and these pipes…she hits a nice lick at idle. Make sure you don’t have someone riding to the right side of you if you decide to crack the throttle. The air cleaner is from West Coast Choppers. Although this bike looks completely radical, it handles as well as any other chopper with perfect geometry. The front end gives the appearance of length without sacrificing handling.
To those of you unfamiliar with Sugar Bear of California, he is one of the original bike builders and has been building choppers since the 60’s. His front end has been patented and exclusively produced this front end design for decades. Look him up.
