Motorcycle chopper kits are hot in town. But what does that mean to you and me? Every week you see more and more pictures of chopper bikes in motorcycle magazines. At the weekends we will see four or five head turning show finish level bikes when we are on the road. There are more customized choppers around now than ever before.

Most of these choppers have been built from motorcycle chopper kits, the “bike in a box” approach. Don’t you want that too? Building your own chopper has never been easier. There are rolling chassis kits, complete bike kits, and frame manufacturers give you a multitude of choice when you decide buy a motorcycle chopper kit.

A long long time ago, the old school chopper builders had to start with a stock bike off-the-shelf and create something completely different. They still do it that way nowadays but a chopper kit is far more easy to handle!

From now on you have a cheap and easier way to build the bike from the ground up. When you take the cost of buying a new bike and the expense of chopping it, it works out much cheaper to start from step one, and your chopper kits. Instead of demolishing your standard bike into a scrap heap, you can start building your own bike in the way you really want it. All the parts are included in the motorcycle chopper kit, along with comprehensive instructions. If you want to have new ideas about building your chopper kit, you’ve got to read one of Billy Lane’s books called: Billy Lane’s How to Build Old School Choppers, Bobbers, and Customs. It’s an excellent guide to get you new ideas.

Don’t expect to get a step-by-step process of how to build a bike from scratch. That’s not what this book is about, which is exactly why it’s such a great read. It’s more of a ‘How I build’ versus a ‘How to build’ book, and one that offers valuable tips and insight to the aspiring shop rat. In other words, it’s a must-have.

The LiV™ Ryder line of all electric choppers is designed to suit each motorcycle enthusiast’s personal taste and can be built to cruise at speeds of upwards of 90 miles per hour while also traveling more than 100 miles on a single charge.  The choppers recharge by being plugged into an outlet, just like any other home appliance.
 
Ron Cerven, Project Development Engineer for Hybrid Technologies, takes pride in working on each bike to custom build a showpiece that the owners will be proud to drive down the highway and display in their home or place of business.  
 
“No two bikes will ever be the same – from the size of the all-electric motor to the detailing of the paint, every bike we make is designed to meet the specific needs of the individual customer,” said Cerven. “Our first customer’s chopper was actually designed to reflect and promote his electrical lighting business and will serve as a showpiece at his store.”
 
While business owners are drawn to the LiV Ryder ™ bikes to serve as the ultimate calling card to promote their companies, motorcycle enthusiasts love them because they turn heads on the road and are the ultimate addition to any chopper collection.   
 
The LiV™Ryder will feature the company’s proprietary battery management system, which constantly monitors the vehicle’s battery pack for voltage, temperature and charge balancing, keeping track of the bike’s individual battery cells. As custom-builds, these bikes are priced individually starting at $24,900.
 
“These bikes are perfect for the enthusiast who wants to be environmentally friendly and ride something cool at the same time,” added Cerven.

Gas tanks come in all shapes and sizes. If you have a old school chopper kit, even a coffin tank is available. Do you want your bike to have a slim look, decide to go for a sportster style tank. They are also available with a stretch and coul include more fuel. Bobber kits need bobber tanks.

Gas tanks are manufactured out of all kind of materials. The most common is raw steel but there are also made out of alluminium or carbon fibres. If your tank is made of raw steel, give the whole thing a sealing treatment on the inside to avoid problems that could even damage your engine.

To finish everything in style, decide to get a decent paint job.
