Have you seen the Honda VTX 1300 cruiser style motorcycle?
Well look out, because here comes the new style of Honda chopper with chopper
kits available for this hot new motorcycle model from the famous Honda brand,
well known for their reliable, fast and comfortable machines.
The Honda chopper concept has been around for a long time
now so perhaps you are wondering why this may even be a worthy news item? Well,
that is because things have changed with the new style VTX range of motorcycles
from Honda. They are completely different from the old style machines that
Honda became well known for. The Honda VTX is modern, light, easy to handle and
very comfortable on a long ride. And now there is a huge range of custom
motorcycle accessories available so that you can convert that standard Honda
motorcycle into a Honda chopper with some extra chrome, a nice set of loud
exhaust pipes and of course, the raked triple trees and fork tube extensions on
the front end for that classic Honda chopper look.
The old school Honda chopper style of the 1970's has been
dramatically updated for the new millennium with the Honda VTX 1300 chopper
kits and custom parts available today. This fast and light motorcycle will
outperform many competitors and still maintain an economical stance when it is
time to fill up at the nearest gas station.
Honda chopper 21st century style can be obtained by fitting
a chopper kit with raked triple trees and extended fork tubes. These chopper
kits contain all the necessary parts you need to make the chopper conversion
and include a choice of 9, 14, or 18 degrees of rake over stock and all the
required components such as extended fork tubes, chrome steel trees, steel
braided brake line and extended speedometer cable. The 9° raked with 4"
over stock fork tubes adds 6" to the overall length of your Honda
motorcycle, the 14° rake with 8" over stock fork tubes adds 10" to
the overall length of your motorcycle and the really radical 18° rake with
10" over stock fork tubes adds 14" to the overall length of your
standard Honda motorcycle for that extreme Honda chopper look.
Your Honda chopper will still ride safe all the way up to
the top speed of the motorcycle and the cool thing about doing a chopper
conversion to a factory standard bike is that you still get to use all the
standard parts for maintenance and repair. There is a lot to be said for one
off custom creations but using this method has got to be a lot more practical
for the serious chopper enthusiast as you will be able to spend more time actually
riding your Honda chopper and much less time in the repair shop!
