The last couple of year's, I've become less biased on alot of thing's, american bikes/choppers is one of them. I used to HATE Harley's and pretty much everything that wasn't Japanese. But, after seeing some of the crazy shi* these guy's do, I found another way to spend money.

Anyone who know's who Choppers Inc. is, or WestCoastChoppers, know's what I'm talking about, here's a pic, tell me what you think..

I used to live in Melbourne Florida where Choppers Inc. is. I recognized the portion of US 1 his shop is on I plan on stopping by in the near future. I hope to be able to afford one in the future.



I have been watching the Chopper wars on the History channel. I hope Choppers Inc. wins. I have no respect for some of the other west coast shops with 40+ employees pulling tanks and fenders off the shelf and trying to pass them off as custom. How custom is it when you just used them on 400 bikes in the last year????



I also like the shop from Brooklyn - Indian Larry? Gasoline Ally. That guy knows what he is doing too.



I have been baging around the idea of a 13BT powered bike. What do you guys think? Possible ditch the turbo and do an ported N/A. I mean these guys are flipping over 130HP. Imagine a 170HP 13B in a bike?? Maybe a shot of NOS on top of that.

BTW - This bike is sick!!!! Anyone notice anything missing on the rear wheel. I love this bike. This guy at Choppers Inc. is amazing. He is way out in front of OC Choppers. Look at that bike close. I HAVE to see that in person. I want that bike.

I like Indian Larry a lot. He was very outspoken and told the camers exactly what is going wrong with the custom chopper scene. His comptetitor from Arizona didn't like what Larry was saying too much. Basically because Larry was putting down then exact bike that dude was building.



I still like Choppers Inc. the best. Billy Lane might be younger but he seems like a hell of a cool dude. I wonder how he will react to my FD powered FC when I stop by.



Another angle of the hubless chopper. I love this bike so much.
