1°run della ghisa..verso l'indipendence weekend...in 2 gg da como a jesolo+ritorno...con motori ultra cinquantenni.... Chopper by:Rat Bike Service & Tra Square Chopper, Merone (Co).
@isko38ca The Frisco style bikes usually have a skinny 21" ront tire, a 15" or 16" rear tire, short bars and the gas tanks are always mounted higher than the stock frames backbone. The bikes in the video are two very good examples!!
I bought a 03 1200 C....got disabled and had to sell it....now my income is not enough to buy another bike....all I do now is watch.....I can still ride...just not DX....would luv to have one of these awesome scooters.....they r bad to the bone.....of course I would be happy with a rat bike too.
Ron Simms and son build some of THE best NorCal-styled bikes. Oh yeah, and then there's Arlen. Anyone recall a bike built by Rooster (a HA from Richmond)?
@isko38ca Set up for usage on the hilly streets of Frisco so no really long forks and the footpegs are high mounted rather than highway as you would find on say a chopper from Florida where the roads are all straight,also some will have front brakes for the hills.
1 word "FREEDOM" I remember before helmet laws. Didn't wear one back then. I been riding over 45 yrs never had an accident on the road, had lots dirt biking but wore helmet during those times. I live in desert area temps over 100 I ride in t shirt & shorts all the time. Nothing more stupid than to see someone wearing full leathers riding an 883 in the middle of Summer, just my opinion
Robert Robb "...never had an accident." That's the key issue. Had a friend in 1978 on a Yamaha XS 650 drift off a paved curve onto a gravel shoulder going 80+ mph. Hit a sign pole that tore his right arm off, no helmet ( not that it would have helped ). Dead at age 19. My dad rode for over 30 years. Lost control of his BMW R1150RT in 2005. Hit a tree, bike burned. Broken hand, ribs, massive closed-head injury despite full coverage helmet. Dead at age 72. Sometimes your first wreck is your last wreck regardless of experience or protective gear. I always preferred riding on the dirt ( YZ 250 ) but I always suited up head to toe, although it was pretty damn hot during the Texas summer.
First of all those are what were originally considered choppers or bombers neither is actually a Frisco styled bike cause the tanks aren't done properly and the pegs are too far forward ......if you are going to post something at least know what you are talking about
Clearly someone posting someones else's video trying to get 15 minutes of fame. As you say, know what you are talking about, which they don't know shit.
Back in the 70's when I 1st built bikes in the back yard,, they were all called choppers.. bobbers were considered the 1st back in the 50's But anyway who gives a shit what you call them,, they're FN cool.
