Award Winning Custom Chopper, One of a kind. No Other Like It (1400)
This custom chopper is named "Heeeet" The bike has its own website: heeeet.com where you can view a selection of photos from start to finish on this frame up customization along with a build sheet. The low mileage donor bike was always garaged and in excellent shape to begin with, however it was completely disassembled and rebuilt with OEM and custom parts. The front fork assembly is a German engineered AME 14 degree, 8" over that is guaranteed to track like factory. The engine was thoroughly examined by a professional and is in perfect condition (compression, etc.). Any item on the donor bike found to be less than perfect was replaced. Bottom line...the chopper is essentially new and looks it. This is the second chopper I've built on the Intruder 1400 platform. The first is called "Wild Ride" (wildride.me) and was built to sell, but I fell in love with the bike and couldn't let it go. It is still my daily rider. Since the rebuild, Heeeet has only been ridden for test purposes and to Hooter's one time during bike night where it got swamped by people with cell phone cameras. The current pipes on the bike are older Cobra drags. Brand new out of the box Jardine drag pipes will be mounted for the buyer if required or included separately as part of the package. There is only one thing that can be said for the paint...it is AWESOME, although it's hard to really appreciate in the photos because of the reflective clearcoat. The tank sides feature Deathwing, the dragon from World of Warcraft, and a flaming nude on top. The subtle flames over the dark purple candy/pearl paint appear 3D and seem to come to life when the sun strikes it. The airbrush work is by Larry Williams who is one of the top artists in his field. The base paint and clearcoats are by Jason Brewer who specializes in Corvette rotisserie restorations and has painted cars that have sold for over $100,000. Heeeet is a one of a kind bike that will snap heads and be mobbed at every bike rally. The web domain heeeet.com and website are included with the purchase of the bike and will be personalized to the new owner (I'm a web developer). The bike is in Missouri and has a personalized plate "HEEEET" that can be transferred. This is obviously not a slapped together custom, Heeeet is a well thought out and researched project that will provide trouble free riding for years to come as it grows in value. The bike won Grand Champion Motorcycle in its first show at O'Reilly's Autofest.2013-09-03 14:52:07Marshfield, Missouri, US1251,000.00

Top 10 Album Covers featuring Motorcycles
Tue, 09 Apr 20131 of 11Next Last Motorcycles and rock ‘n’ roll. Ever since The King threw his leg over his ’56 Harley-Davidson and the Black Rebels rolled into Carbonville, the combination of motorcycles and rock have been as combustible as gas and spark. Early moto-rock lived for the most part on the fringes of pop music, in the pomped-up rockabilly of guys like Eddie Cochran and Gene Vincent.
