Black Betty

This long bike was built with visions of stretched out '60's choppers in mind. The Build started around a vintage "Randy Enterprises" springer strait out of the sixties. I tried to stay with traditional items all the way through and use as many period correct parts as i could afford to. The frame was first raked and stretched to sit right with the overlenth springer and still be able to go down the road right.

The only motor that would be right was a Panhead and not just any pan motor would do. It was completely rebuilt with 4 1/4" stroker kit and shovelhead 3 5/8" big bore cylinders and pistons. S.T.D. heads top the motor off and help it breath right.

Another huge piece of the super sixties look is the vintage king queen seat donated to the project from a friend. The sissy bar was made from stainless rod and bent to frame the seat as well as hold the fender up and support the upsweep exhaust.
