Extreme Trailers & Choppers is a small business in Central Florida specializing is super sleek, aerodynamic bike haulers. They also have a shop on the premises, and enjoy building radical bikes for themselves and others. Derrick and James are partial to Sportster engines; they are quick and great to work on. “The Sportster is a neat motor, and is really under-appreciated,”...

When it was time to make the chopper go, Wayne ordered up a 113” Patrick Racing engine, a 5-speed Jim’s transmission and BDL top fuel primary belt. Hooligan wheels by PM were fitted, a 21” in the front and an 8 1/2” wide one in the rear for the 250 Avon. Doug Keim supplied the “2 O’Clock” rear fender, gas tank and front end. A Fat Katz front fender hugs the tire and the sleek...

The stock motor was scrapped and a 121” TP installed with a Magnacharger and NOS system.  Probably half that power is needed to pull the extra weight of the batteries and amplifiers required for the complex audio visual system and the seven gallon gas tank! A small Bushtec trailer was added with a Firestone Air Ride suspension system to carry one of the televisions, some batteries...

  Described as “blindingly fast,” the bike met the customer’s expectations, with the 280 rear tire giving the long bike a beefy looking rear end while the re-worked Jesse James tank and Tight Custom wheels some individuality.  The details of the bike can be read in the specifications, pretty much straight high end parts were used, including Mean Street’s new “Wicked” front forks. I...

Four hundred hours later, the bike you see here was finished.  Larry is a long time Harley rider so he didn’t have much trouble coming up with a design.  Knowing bikes, he thankfully didn’t do anything weird like put the pipes on the wrong side or something silly.  Instead he created an awesome full size Twin Cam springer hardtail that he has since entered into several bike shows,...

  Starting with a six up and three out frame, Mitch added 18” over forks and a 280 series rear tire.  This gave him a super long bike, with a lot of give in it for comfort, and an absolute minimum amount of weight.  When the 127” Ultima motor was fitted, the result was a screamer, almost too much motor for the application.  The bike got faster and faster as it was breaking-in and...

  Expressing satisfaction with the parts, the crew at Top Shelf got the bike together in a short three months, using a powerful 113” S&S motor and a six speed Baker transmission. This high class, minimalist chopper ended up with the clean lines and bare bones looks that put Jesse on the map. A sensible 200 series tire was fitted out back and high end PM foot controls and...

  Though Frank does a lot of high-end custom and one-off work, each year he puts together a signature model and a handful of spec bikes to show off his talent and new ideas.  2005 was no exception, with the debut of the Oddi Cycles Drop ‘05 Softail. For this bike, Frank wanted to use the R&R 147” motor, so he actually designed the bike around the engine. The R&R is a...

    This particular bike is an older chop of his that Jack found hanging around Daytona and it’s good to see someone’s enjoying it. Strangely this is one of Criss’ more conservative customs and even more strangely, it was built by Counts Kustoms in Las Vegas that is known for the wilder the better when it comes to customs. By the bluing on the pipes it looks like somebody’s done a...
