foundation of any custom or scratch-built motorcycle is the frame. The length, the look and the handling are all determined by the chassis.

Live to customize, customize to live” is the motto of many Harley-Davidson owners, and it’s easy to see why. From nose to tail, few other two-wheelers offer so many hop-up options to the ardent enthusiast. This is particularly true of Evolution-powered bikes. Lower, faster, longer, tricker are all just hours and a few phone calls away.

* Engine hop-up

* Wheels and tires
* Modifying sheet metal
* Custom paint, plating, and polishing

started in the 1990s when a few people decided to build Softails from aftermarket parts—because they couldn’t buy one at their dealer—has evolved into a full blown industry. Today, every small town has a custom bike shop and every motorhead wants to build a Bobber like the ones they see on TV.

Wolfgang Publications and Tim Remus were there at the very beginning of the trend with their Ultimate V-Twin Motorcycle book. Today they’re back with their new book, Advanced Custom Motorcycle Assembly & Fabrication Manual. Part catalog, part service manual and part inspiration, this new book offers help with planning the project, getting the right look and actually assembling that custom bike you’ve been dreaming about.

West Coast Choppers and other aftermarket suppliers making their products available to the general public, it’s never been easier for the average builder to order parts, accessories, mechanicals, and other materials to build a quality homemade chopper with West Coast style and custom details.

Author, journalist, and motorcyclist Mike Seate follows the building of one such chopper at the hands of Steve Peffer of Pittsburgh’s Steel City Choppers. From choosing a kit and ordering the frame, tank, fenders and engine, to fine detailing and customization, Seate shows how chopper building can be done with a little mechanical know-how and a lot of creativity and personality. And since imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, each chapter also includes examples of choppers by other builders.

And thought the styling might look the same as thirty years ago, the new bikes are assembled from parts that are better in every way from anything available in 1969. New Knuckle and Panhead engines put out 80 and more horsepower. Hardtail and Softail frames come in every imaginable stretch and rake dimension. Springer, girder and hydraulic forks are available for the front end, while 200, 230 and 250 rear tires are available for the rear.
