Additional Info | The pipes are made by NCS in stainless steel. Carb is a stock linkert. Primary clutch hub is stock, but I made the front sprocket and ring gear was made by Bare Knuckle Choppers and I fit them and tig welded them in place. The oil tank is stainless steel fit between the gas tanks for a clean look, gas tanks are hand formed by NCS with their spine design. Rear fender is hand forged damascus steel with 400 layers of carbon steel & nickel heat formed together and drilled to create the patterns, also the seat pan battery/coil box and gas tank plates and spine are made from damascus that took over 500 hours to form. All the copper is hand formed and hammered to create the detail texture, sissy bar was hand forged and bars are NCS, headlight and tailight are vintage. |
