Additional Info | Everything is one-off by my friends and myself at C&C Choppers; the front end, wheels, frame, oil and petrol tanks, seat, pipes, carb manifolds and stacks, bars, controls, paintwork, etc... The motor is turned around backwards, it has two rear cylinder heads running two 40mm Webber carbs, the gearbox is also backwards. To keep the bike short, the box is sitting upright, final drive is friction, clutch is a modified Rev-lock item. |
