The project bike dubbed "Ruby" will be built to commemorate the 40 years of Street Chopper.
We are going to transform a basket case Harley-Davidson Shovelhead into a true "Raked and Flaked" chopper with influences taken heavily from past pages of Street Chopper. We don't want to give away too many details, but let's just say the bike's name says a lot about how it will turn out.
Lending a hand in facilitating the bike build, industry leaders and luminaries S&S, Custom Chrome, Baker Drivetrain, Performance Machine, Flyrite Choppers, Detroit Bros, Invader Wheels, Avon Tires, 3Guyz Customs, Joe Hunt Magnetos, Stevenson's Cycle, Biltwell, Chopper Dave's Casting Company, West Eagle M/C Products, Delisle Products, Chassis Design Company, Harpoon Custom Paint, Duane Ballard Leather, Ranger Lifts, and of course Harley-Davidson will all be in the mix supporting the build.
We want our readers to join in on the fun as well, so to keep you up to speed, we will be showing you how the bike is coming together piece by piece with a weekly build blog and an official progress thread on our own streetchopperweb.com.
Once the bike is up and running, it will be debuted in Street Chopper's 40th anniversary issue, which hits newsstands in October of 2009. SC
