Custom Motorcycles Idea Book

A custom motorcycle, by definition, is a one-of-a-kind creation. Whether it's a chopper, bobber, or bagger, it will share its most fundamental elements with other motorcycles. From that basic starting point, a custom motorcycle then becomes a reflection of the rider designing and building it. From a custom seat and paint job to unique handlebars and controls to hidden wiring and vintage accessories, the choices and possibilities are limitless. So, where do you start? Building a motorcycle or having one built can be an expensive and time-consuming process. And the parts, tools, and paint can add up to thousands of dollars. You want your investment to pay off in a motorcycle that reflects your style and one that you're proud to show off. In the Custom Motorcycle Idea Book, custom-bike expert Howard Kelly employs Michael Lichter's award-winning photos, detailing the work of famous builders from around the world to illustrate the variety of choices available. Whether it's frames, fenders, engines, or paint, each chapter illustrates the variety of choices available to a builder and how to make the right choice for your ride. If you're building or customizing a chopper, bobber, or bagger, the Custom Motorcycle Idea Book will help ensure you achieve your goals. Features over 700 photographs. 160 pages. Paperback.
