This bike is built on a custom frame. The style of this chopper is often
referred to as This bike was the prototype for design, testing and marketing for a new line of custom bikes now available through our sister company Black Knight Choppers. They are now available online at: www.blackknightchoppers.net |

| What else would you do with a $40,000 custom bike and a $300 tire?? |

The band asked us to park next to the stage. Its nice to have your bike appreciated. We let Kody be our beer-drinking mascot and guard the bike for awhile. |
