April 16, 2012 Leave a comment

For the past few years now I actually have sought for the Ten Best Choppers and that i am surprised nobody has made a listing like this before. I couldn’t notice any lists of the best choppers in the slightest degree I started to wonder why that was. I set I was going to make my very own then since nobody else has and while I was deciding and wanting for bikes to incorporate I realized why no one has done this nonetheless! Its so damn laborious simply to decide on ten Choppers because there are such a lot of different designs and varieties of bikes its like finding the hay in the needle stack!

As for the 10 I have chosen, I will simply say these ten are the ten best choppers, this can be the list of how I felt at the time and i in all probability will do more lists with 10 utterly different choppers shortly, since there are such a lot of choppers.

ten. Kevin Alsop and Big Bear Choppers- The Athena- The Athena was  engineered for Discovery Channels Biker Build Off, and it’s one hell of a motorbike! Its an all American biker built by an Aussie! The bike has an mean and aggressive look to it, which it achieves from its fire orange paintjob, devil impressed frames and handle bars that look like devils horns this is one badass bike!

9. Jesse James-West Coast Choppers- Gold Digger- I swear Jesse James and West Coast Choppers are the only people who do not have a gallery that list the names and specs of there bikes! I had to youtube History of the Chopper for the name of it! Anyway this bike is one among my favorites from WCC, Jesse designed this bike in History of the Chopper. The Front end of the Bike is constructed by John Harman and therefore the Frame could be a Frame Jesse Found at a swap meet years ago.

eight. Billy Lane and Choppers Inc- Money Shot- Now this bike has something extremely distinctive about it, and that is that its rimless! Yes the rear wheel has no rim! Alternative great things concerning the bike are the distinctive handle bars that go downward, the mirror is that the silhouette of a hot girl, there is pin striping on the forks and sink knobs for gauge covers. Impressive little detail is what made this bike!

seven. Chica and Chica Custom Cycles- Ace- I gotta say I love this bike! The Bike has that classic 50s and 60s look to it. With its black paint job with red white and yellow strips, its low, with short custom forks, incorporates a smooth fuel tank, and it conjointly features a cool bend in the frame that Chica is thought for. Making this a nice one among a form chopper!

6. Ian Barry and Falcon Motorcycles- The Black- Part of Falcon Motorcycles Concept 10 series, the Bullet was designed around a 1952 Vincent Black Shadow engine. What makes this bike nice is all of the  tiny details of every part on the bike. Just about every half is custom created and almost all of them are painted! The Black overall features a bit of a retro future style to it, The Bike is an antique art piece that is rideable!

5. Chopper by Denver Mullins Designed by the founding father of the Chopper himself back in the first 70s. Denver Mullins was the godfather of the chopper, he started building Choppers back within the 60s, opened his initial shop in So-Cal in the late 60s and created the Long Fork, smooth paint, Diamond Gas tank look that is still popular among choppers nowadays! Very little Known reality, even though Denver designed Harley Choppers his favorite Motor by far was Honda! He loved Honda do to their cheap value, sturdiness and power!

4. Hank Young and Young Choppers and Hot Rods- The Flying Pan- What I really love regarding the Flying Pan is that it appearance like an aircraft! (that explains the name). I love aircraft and aviation therefore this I extremely like this bike.The colours and therefore the paint build me assume of a WWI or a 20s barnstorming aircraft. The way the Fender and therefore the Tank are formed also look aircraft inspired. What stands out about this bike is the fuel tank hangs from the frame and it’s underneath it rather then being on prime of the frame. The pegs like like they are made from an previous machine gun that ads a cool impact to the bike, I truly have heard a rumor somewhere that Hank builds his parts out of recent aircraft and automobile components! (Which I think is cool)!

3. Indian Larry and Gasoline Alley- Grease Monkey- Built in the 90s by the late great Indian Larry. The bike looks simply like a 60s Hot Rod or Gasser, with its candy red paint job, white flames, the text have that 60s style fonts, the short front forks, and tiny vogue gas tank all create this bike appear as if its right out of the 60s!  Grease Monkey could be a true tribute to Hot Rodders and Bike Builders! It even options Indian Larry’s Iconic paint on the transmission belt! Grease Monkey could be a True Master Piece!

a pair of. Cole Foster and Salinas Boys Customs- The Beautiful Loser- It’s a Beautiful Winner in my book. It’s one amongst the most effective motorcycles ever engineered! Its paintjob offers it a 60s Hot Rod look, that the ribbed fender and fuel tank augment. The “burnt orange” paintjob is flawless, together with the white. Another I very love is the rear fender is not just chopped however its also rounded and smooth giving the full bike a pleasant clean look. Overall the Bike is a true Hot Rod.

1. Indian Larry and Gasoline Alley-Daddy O-  If I had to selected one bike in the world that represented what a Chopper is, I even have to mention it’d be Daddy-O by Indian Larry! Daddy is the example of the perfect chopper! Well done, smooth paint, perfect lines and a custom engine! Everything about this bike is amazing, from the custom gas tank that flows perfectly with the bike, to the rear fender that helps with the lines, to the custom designed frame that has excellent balance  to the even an engine that’s a Panhead and a Shovelhead in one! The Paintjob and therefore the bike was built as a tribute to hot rodder Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, Larry used Big Daddys character Rat Fink on the bike and metal flake paint like an Ed Roth Hot Rod.  Daddy-O very is the amount one chopper!
