Kiwi_Roy Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I saw this chopper over the weekend, Built by Peter a mechanic at the local chopper shop www.ivorscustomcycles.com I spoke to the owner, he sourced all the parts on e-bay, no goose was harmed. Very well executed with Harley Soft-tail rear suspension
Kiwi_Roy Posted July 26, 2011 Author Posted July 26, 2011 A couple more pics The frame is massive and beautifully done.
Baldini Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Not my cup of tea, but looks nicely made. I've never seen a Guzzi big block look so small - looks like a moped engine in that thing - frame needs an 8 cylinder radial! KB
abouc Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 I don't care for these "things"... Nor do I. Choppers can be nice to look at - as art pieces - but I would never want to ride one. What happens when you need to make an evasive maneuver? There's no where to go but down on one of those.
gstallons Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 The only evasive move I would make with any Guzzi modified like this is when I hopped off while pushing it off into the metal crusher.....
antonio carroccio Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Enzo's bike is weird, that's for sure. But this yellow thing surpass it.
Kiwi_Roy Posted July 28, 2011 Author Posted July 28, 2011 You guys are a bit harsh, I don't fancy a chopper myself but I do like to see some inovation. I think the Peterbuilt looks quite rideable, twin front discs which I'm almost certain the donor T3 didn't have. Cheers Roy
gstallons Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 You do not chop Moto Guzzis or BMWs.... Older Triumph, BSA, Norton, H-D, etc... those are the kind of bikes that get that treatment.
Baldini Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 His bike, he can do as he likes & good luck to him. As you say it's nicely put together. T3 had twin discs. KB
