Choppers by Hot Rod Surf®
In the 1950’s and
sixties motorcycle riders wanted more speed, agility, and style out of their
stock motorbikes. Many WWII veterans armed with the mechanical knowledge
from their service began to modify their stock motorcycles. These modifications
soon evolved into a classic tradition based on the chopped or hot rodded
motorbike known as the ‘chopper.’ In order to increase the performance
of a stock motorcycle all of the unnecessary items and ornaments where taken
off or ‘chopped’ off the motorcycle and functional pieces of
the motorbike were personalized to the tastes and custom fit of the rider.
Shortened fenders, more slender streamlined 21” front rims, smaller
lighter gas tanks, sleeker after market lights are all part of chopping
a motorbike. Choppers by Hot Rod Surf® keeps
the tradition of choppers alive! Rear chain conversions, pinstriping, custom
paint, sissy bars, ape hangers, drag bars, short risers, tall risers, race
ignitions, and custom frame modifications are all part of the Hot Rod Surf
Chopper experience. Certain traditions never go out of style. Check out
some of the choppers built here at Hot Rod Surf®
